Experience
PRIVATE AND SMALL-GROUP TUTORING BY A CERTIFIED TEACHER (OCT): 12+ years tutoring all ages, as well as classroom teaching, childcare, and professional editing experience. I offer inspired custom programs in addition to course-specific support, with a focus on lasting understanding and engagement. My practice features the use of holistic, individualized approaches to address each student's needs, including exceptionalities (learning disabilities, gifted, etc). I also provide detailed feedback and non-evaluative assessments for further learning. Areas and subjects I work with include: -writing (all ages) -math (Grades 1-11) -test preparation and learning skills -English, other humanities, and social sciences -enriched programs for advanced students and homeschoolers In addition to my basic qualifications in secondary English and History, I have additional qualifications in Special Education, Math, and Writing. September 2014 update: only a few spots are currently available. In particular, I may have space remaining on Tuesdays after school and on Saturdays, as well as several weekday daytime spots.
