Tutor Information

About

Hello! My name is Ms. Jane Elieff and I'm an experienced, patient, and passionate educator with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and nearly 12 years of tutoring and teaching experience. I have taught in Kindergarten, 2nd grade, 4th grade, and 5th grade classrooms. Additionally, I have over 1,500 volunteer hours with children and over 300 hours in elementary college practicum experience. Combined, I've spent close to 18,000 hours teaching or tutoring children. I have extensive experience teaching all elementary foundational reading and math skills such as word recognition, fluency, comprehension, number sense, and number operations. In our one-on-one sessions, your child will receive private, individualized instruction that is based on their specific needs. Whether your child needs extra help grasping a skill, one-on-one help finishing assignments, or looking for an extra challenge, I am here to help! Additionally, I am very passionate about neurodivergent students. This passion is largely driven by my personal journey with ADHD. I have extensive teaching experience with many neurodivergent learners such as students with ADHD, ASD, and more. In addition, I have previously taught an online 1:1 class where I provided executive functioning coaching/mentoring for many students, all of whom were neurodivergent. My ultimate goal is to empower all students, both neurodivergent and non-neurodivergent, by helping them develop the skills and confidence they need to navigate their learning more effectively. I truly believe that every student has the potential to thrive, and I'm here to guide them along that journey! Whether you need a full content review, a brush-up, test prep or intensive help for closing learning gaps you’ve found the right tutor!

The BEST tutor for students with ADHD!!

My son has ADHD and Ms Elieff has completely transformed his interest in school and ability to learn. He is very hyper but Ms. Elieff is incredibly patient and kind. She is so fun, engaging, and encouraging. She listens to student and parents’ concerns and addresses issues the best way. My son always enjoys going to tutoring (which is the opposite of his usual attitude towards anything to do with schoolwork), and I started seeing significant improvement in just 2 weeks! Since starting with Ms Elieff he has came up 6 reading levels. Not only do they work on academics, Ms. E also has a way of always teaching him great skills that help him focus and build confidence so that he can thrive with ADHD. She has had a way of reaching him that not many can - including many of his teachers. We are soo grateful we found her. I highly recommend her. Two thumbs up!!
