Primary Grades Tutor
About
I am currently a second grade teacher and I love every aspect of my job. When I was in grade school I had some difficulty in a specific subject. With the aid of a helpful tutor, I not only became more than proficent in the academic area, but I learned to love it. I aim to do the same for all of my students!
I love my career in education because it means I get to spend time with children, one of my greatest joys. Tutoring takes that joy to the next level because I get to be one-on-one, or in a smaller group, allowing myself to get to know each of my students and their needs that much better.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
When beginning lessons with a new student I like to get to know them as a person, as well as get to know them as a learner. I try to understand their preferred learning style as quickly as possible so that I may best assist them and make them feel as comfortable and confident right off the bat. Building a good relationship or repore with my students is key in helping them succeed to their fullest potential.
