Mrs. Gapper


Hello! I'm glad you checked in! I hope you'll find some helpful links. I thoroughly enjoy my practice as a private reading and writing tutor and academic coach for students living in the southeast Charlotte metropolitan area. I am keenly interested in helping students learn how to study and use their time efficiently and to understand their own thinking and learning process. I remain a life-long student, which keeps me honest and empathetic.
