Read More About Vanessa R...

Hello, my name is Vanessa and I have tutored students for almost three years. I tutor ages 5 to adult. When I begin tutoring a student, I perform an evaluation in order to determine the areas they need help. I adjust my teaching style in order to suit the student's learning style. I also provide parents with progress reports. My goal is to help students improve their skills and gain confidence.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that teaching is the most important profession in the world. Not only do I have the opportunity to shape young people’s minds and make them future leaders, I have the responsibility to do my best to assure their success. Student success should not only be evaluated through academic achievement but also personal growth. The most important job for a facilitator is to create meaningful discussions that encourage subject mastery and an opportunity for students to learn from their peers.

This is accomplished by providing opportunities for students to learn through their preferred method of instruction. Whether a student is in kindergarten or graduate school, it is the teachers job to facilitate and guide him/her to success. I am qualified to teach elementary and middle school ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I started my teaching career as a Teach For America corps member in Atlanta, Georgia, where I taught sixth grade language arts at Crawford Long Middle School. Most recently, I had the honor of teaching at KIPP: LEAD College Prep Charter School in Gary, Indiana. I previously held Language Arts Certificates (6-12) in both Georgia and Indiana. I also have experience tutoring college freshmen in an introductory college writing seminar.

I believe in helping students reach their potential by teaching them to pose and answer questions about the world around them. My classroom was a place where children were excited about learning. I made sure to convey my love of the English ... read more
