Colorado Native, Summa Cum Laude Graduate of CU, Experienced Teacher and Tutor
Megan Hughes was born and raised in Aurora, Colorado. She grew up exploring arts, sciences, performance, and writing. Raised by a K-12 ELL and Special Ed teacher, in a family of educators, she has a deep love for learning. She apprenticed with a K-12 teacher in high school, with an emphasis on reading and writing education. She tutored while attending CU Boulder where she received a B.A. in History and Political Science and a minor in Philosophy. There she won a grant and fulfilled a research fellowship with her university by publishing a summa cum laude awarded thesis. Since graduation, she has developed her tutoring and classroom teaching experience through private tutoring as well as substitute teaching. She tailors her teaching to students’ specific learning styles and needs and has developed remote learning strategies. By applying these strategies to her independent research, she is growing an online education platform for African and Global history. Most of all, as a mother of twins she loves exploring and learning the world through little eyes again.
“Our son had the incredible privilege of working with Megan and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! From the very beginning, Megan’s passion for teaching and her ability to connect with [our son] made all the difference. She quickly identified his learning style and provided the right tools and strategies that allowed him to thrive.
Megan’s patience, encouragement, and expertise helped him flourish in ways we didn’t think possible in such a short time.
We also appreciated the variety of support programs offered, which gave us options to tailor his learning experience to his specific needs. The entire team at Mindfish has been professional, helpful and genuinely invested in Brooks’ success.
If you’re looking for a tutor who goes above and beyond to make learning fun and effective, Megan and the Mindfish team are the absolute best. We’re so grateful for their support and look forward to working with them again in the future if the need arises!“
