A strong foundation is of utmost importance.Children are like growing sponges, they absorb information very quickly. So it is very important that they have a strong foundation to grow upon and continue to learn from. I have been a student my whole life, I love learning new things every day.

I work at the corporate office for Owl Tutors. We help match students to the perfect tutor in the South Florida area. Our tutors have been tutoring for many years and work with elementary through college students. Helping people and seeing them learn motivate students and is why they love with they do. They are extremely patient and willing to do what it takes to ensure you learn the material, as opposed to just passing exams. Our tutors are trained to be able to relate problems to the real world, making them concrete and simple. For example, a question may ask what is 7 times 25? This problem is abstract and challenging to some people. Thus, I rephrase it to, "If you have 7 quarters in your pocket, how much money do you have?" By making the problem more relatable to the student, the problem suddenly appears easier and less intimidating. Our tutors go through training on how to assess ea

I have Five (plus) years of professional tutoring experience specializing in English and Elementary Math. I have three years of substitute teaching experience, during which time I worked with students in grades 1-6.
