Looking to help students improve their reading and writing skills

One of my former teachers gave me some advice while I was still in college, pursuing a career as a high school English teacher. He told me to always remember to "meet the students where they are." It sounded like an important enough teaching philosophy to wrap my head around and seemed almost beautiful in its simplicity. Little did I know the what such a philosophy requires for a dedicated professional in education. In my years since graduating and starting my profession, meeting the studen... Read more

I'm Parth! I am currently a student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign pursuing a Computer Science degree.

Energetic, Experienced Elementary School Teacher
I am a caring and experienced classroom teacher with over 14 years of experience teaching 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades.

I enjoy rising to the challenge of making learning enjoyable for those students who struggle. I also enjoy enriching the curriculum for learners who seek challenges! Strength in the core curriculum and how to make it understandable... Read more
