Early intervention: reading, writing, spelling, Orton-Gillingham, PAF
I love helping kids learn to read! Many students struggle with reading, writing and spelling and are not given the right tools to succeed. I have been trained in Preventing Academic Failure (PAF) which is an early intervention program for teaching reading, spelling, and handwriting. It prevents or addresses reading failure in struggling readers and learning disabled. PAF is the most effective adaptation of Orton-Gillingham instruction and provides children with the building blocks they ne... Read more

Carolyn - Mathematics Tutor - Grades K-10
I am a teacher and a tutor with many years of experience. I taught in elementary school, middle school and a community college. I teach using all the basic methods. I go back to the rules of numbers and how they work. I try to build a strong foundation so that the student can "understand" their work and not just memorize it. I am very patient with all my students. If they do not understand a concept I will repeat it many times until it is understood.... Read more

Robin
SAT/ACT Expert with 15 years experience
My background includes a BS in Education from Cornell University and MEd in English Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. Through the years, I have supported students in writing, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, French and the sciences.
