About
Hi There! ^_^
My name is Andrea ("On-Dray-Ah"). I have been an educator for 10+ years and have been teaching online since 2020.
I have a wide range of experiences: tutoring children from 5-10 years old, to teens, high school students, and even taught at the university level supporting college students.
Additionally, I enjoy supporting children & adult English-Second-Language learners.
What makes me special as a tutor is that I make the effort to build a relationship with each student. I get to know them, their interests, hopes- and apply that to their learning.
Tutoring is a space of practice. I make sure tutoring feels different than school- it's a time to explore, try new things, and have fun!
Looking forward to meeting you ^_^ !

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Students are first and foremost, individuals with motivations, feelings, dreams, and fears. I do my best to learn about my students and their specific needs & interests, and then from there supporting them. Each student is unique and beautiful in their own way. I want to help them discover that for themselves as they continue their education adventure. To me, education should be an avenue for students to explore their potential. That is what I do and provide as a tutor.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of Arts degree. In my 8 years as a professional, I have taught 1 graduate course and 7 undergraduate courses.
How did you get started teaching?
My first job in education was in 4th grade when I tutored my neighbor! I was her tutor all the way up until I graduated from high school. I absolutely loved it!
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Pick a tutor who you think you feel comfortable with. Everyone deserves to be surrounded by those who allow you to be your authentic self!
