Many years of experience teaching, working, and tutoring children of all ages. Every child learns in a different way. I want to be able to find the best way and help children have fun while learning. It is important to establish what learning method works best for a child before teaching can take place. A child will be successful if they are having fun and learning in a style that they feel comfortable with. Hands on learning, use of technology, books, group learning, creative role play of different ways to solve problems.

I have experience in tutoring elementary and middle school students. I found it to be very enjoyable and they did too! I do my very best to make sure your child has a good time while learning. It seems that when they are enjoying themselves they are more likely to remember what was taught. My methods of tutoring will depend on what learning style your child is most comfortable with. It is of great importance that your child builds confidence and the skills needed to move forward. I will make sure your child does not feel overwhelmed or stressed out with what I teach. By the way I teach, your child wont even realize they are being tutored! I ensure your child will improve in the subjects I tutor and have a blast while doing so! I look forward to hearing from you.
