Tutor Information
About
Hi there, I am a former teacher with 5 years total of classroom experience, with roles as an elementary school teacher, teacher intern, and tutor (elementary and college tutor). I currently work as a contracted elementary school tutor in Florida. My ultimate goal as a tutor is to meet students where they are and supplement the hard work they are already doing in the classroom through building relationships, understanding student goals, and customizing tutoring sessions for the needs of my students.
As an elementary school teacher, I was able to gain hands on experience with differentiating lessons to meet my students' needs. Adapting the district’s given curricula to fit each student’s learning style and complement my classroom dynamic is a skill I have continued to hone as a tutor. Additionally, the professional development courses required as a teacher has bolstered my knowledge of research-based practices that I have been able to put to use as a teacher and tutor. Courses such as LETRS (a reading course designed to give educators a strong background in the science of reading) and other reading and math trainings geared to my district’s curricula have also been integral in shaping my teaching methods. My current role as a tutor has a focus on reading and math interventions for students on grade level and those who are below grade level. I do this in small groups to give students more individualized instruction, something I have done throughout my career as an educator.
Though my teaching experience is mostly from elementary education, I have tutored at the college level and have amble experience working with higher-level writing assignments, including research papers, PowerPoint presentations, annotated bibliographies, etc. English is a subject I excelled in during high school and college, and my knowledge base has prepared me to help with reading and writing assignments for high school and middle school.
Looking forward to working with you!
