Welcome to Hot Topics! In this episode, we're excited to have tutorpreneur Sharronda Smith back on the show to share her insights about the tutoring industry and what it means to be a tutor. As the founder of Enrichology Tutoring, Sharronda connects her work to her personal experiences growing up with a brother on the autism spectrum. This background has shaped her mission to support neurodivergent learners, focusing on helping them build confidence and skills in mathematics.
Sharronda believes in a well-rounded approach to education that emphasizes mental health, understanding how important it is for effective learning. While she specializes in working with neurodivergent students, she's dedicated to helping all learners, recognizing that each person has unique challenges. During our conversation, she explains her hands-on teaching methods, which make difficult subjects more relatable and engaging for her students.
Sharronda also shares details about her new project: a curriculum that creatively combines algebra with biological sciences. This initiative shows her commitment to developing teaching strategies that make math and science enjoyable and accessible for everyone. Join us for this insightful discussion as Sharronda talks about her journey and experiences in the world of tutoring!
Who is Sharronda Smith?
From Sharronda: "Hello, I’m Sharronda Marie Smith. I was born on May 30, 1986, in San Antonio, TX, to David Lee Smith, a dedicated social worker, and Tarwyn Stephanie Smith (Thompson), a compassionate registered nurse. I have one brother, two wonderful children, and a large extended family full of cousins. Autism and ADHD had a profound impact on my upbringing. My interests include gardening, carpentry, poetry, reading, and cooking—but my greatest passion lies in math and science. I naturally connect everything I do back to those subjects. Although grade school was socially and cognitively challenging (especially English), academics came more easily, which inspired me to become a teacher. In 2023, I founded Enrichology Tutoring, a service that supports neurodivergent learners in building confidence and competence in math through personalized, hands-on learning experiences."
