Brainard Tutoring
About
Over the past four years, the educational landscape has undergone significant transformations. Students, parents, and educators alike have faced unprecedented challenges, adapting to new ways of learning and teaching. As we continue to navigate this evolving environment, I recognize the impact it has had on households and the difficult decisions that have become a constant part of our lives.
Having personally taught during the pandemic, I empathize with the immense changes your student is experiencing. From tears of frustration to internet connectivity issues, and even substantial gaps in understanding crucial concepts, the educational journey has been anything but ordinary.
As a certified teacher with a background in both education and nannying, I am committed to bridging the gap between students and their learning. Utilizing my unique skills, I will help your child reconnect with their education, fostering a positive and effective learning experience.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
In order to provide your child with the best possible lesson, I need to know what they are currently learning in class (just a general idea is fine), what accommodations they need (if applicable), and any other information you feel as a parent is necessary for a successful session.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a certified Elementary Education teacher (K-6). I have two years of classroom experience, as well as one year of preschool teaching experience, and 7 years of nannying (childcare industry) experience in ages 6 months-13 years. I have been teaching online since 2020 in a school and tutoring setting.
