Audra Cashin: ELA!

I am passionate about my job, my content, and my relationships with students. I want students to learn, while feeling relaxed, listened to, and successful. I hate to see kids stressed over assignments because they feel overwhelmed. My theory is one-step-at-a-time. I attack everything in life one-step-at-a-time.

I am a mom of four kids, ages 13-18 and have loved teaching high school and middle school for 25 years. I teach ELA and focus on literature, grammar and writing.

I have experience as a tutor, with both individuals and small groups. I stopped tutoring for a bit to be there for my own kids (not that any of them wanted Mom’s help). However, now that I have more free time, I am looking forward to jumping back in.

I am willing to help with homework, or build reading and writing skills. One of my strengths is helping students who struggle with executive functioning: organization of materials or time management of assignments.

I can work to build a good foundation of study habits for students in elementary or middle school, making the transition to high school that much easier and more successful.

If your student needs help with organization, homework, writing or reading assignments, I would love to hear from you.
