Kaylee
Compassionate, Inclusive, Kind Math & Science Tutor
My focus is to provide a warm and supportive educational space in which students feel safe to learn new concepts with guidance suited to their individual needs.

I also ask about how they feel about their classes, and what makes them feel that way. My priority when starting the tutoring process with a new student is to always make sure that they feel safe to make mistakes with me,... Read more

Now that I am retired, covering all living expenses is not a principal concern. I am interested i... Read more
