My teaching style is fun: relaxed and engaging for my students and for me too. I am serious about giving my clients the best and richest learning situation as possible. I use a modality designed just for that student and perhaps not offered at school. Since I am in a one on one setting I can ideally focus on just that one student's personal needs. I communicate clearly with all stake holders to ensure I am meeting the learner's needs and expectations. I know some of our relationships will be short term to get past an academic challenge and others may be longer to meet your needs. Whatever the length or circumstances I want it to be the best, positively memorable and educationally worthwhile experience for my student. Throughout my successful career as a teacher and school counselor, I've instructed every level from kindergarten to college level. Likewise I've had the privilege of worki

I have taught for 30 years. Five years ago I began tutoring when my daughter was diagnosed with a sensory processing disorder. I feel like I can do more as a tutor than a classroom teacher. My heart lies with these kids and I want to do everything I can to help make them a success. I create an individual course of study for each child based on their learning style. I help kids understand their homework and teach them how to study so they get more out of the time they are spending in their school work. I teach reading comprehension and fluency. My students typically see a two to three year jump in grade level after just a few hours of tutoring. I tutor children with ADD, dyslexia, sensory disorders, dysgrahia, autism, aspergers, and other learning disabilities. If you want only the best than call Blueberry House.

I have six years of tutoring/teaching experience, helping students come to a well developed understanding of the subjects they struggle with. Part of this experience includes a year teaching English in a classroom setting in South Korea. Through these positions I worked with students from the ages of 6 to 22, with varying levels of expertise and learning styles. Due to this I have developed an ability to work successfully with a wide range of students. I am a patient teacher who works diligently to ensure the student's confidence and strength in the subject matter. I believe that there are many ways to approach a topic, and it is my duty to find the approach that allows the student to full understand. I worked to instill the skills the student's needs through thorough explanations, practice, and encouragement.
