Amarylis
Experienced Elementary Ed Teacher and Tutor in Reading, Writing
Hello, I taught first grade for 18 years. I especially enjoyed helping children to begin reading and writing and to help them to really understand math concepts, with the use of lots of manipulatives. I also loved really getting to know the children and watching them love learning. Finally, I very much enjoyed the camaraderie of working with the support professionals. (Reading coordinator, special ed teacher, etc) We were a team that put together the best possible programs for the childre... Read more
Justin
English Tutor and Proofreader: Critical, Creative Reading and Writing
English language and literature are passions of mine, and my approach to tutoring is to try to inspire the same enthusiasm in pupils. This requires conveying a sense of appreciation for storytelling and awe at the power of the written word. Engagement with texts that will interest students is key. My tutoring strategy involves helping students realize their own way of understanding and using language. I strive to encourage learners to create their own proper ways of interpreting and expressi... Read more

My final project was a tutoring program I created between my third-graders and a kindergarten classroom. In my... Read more

I realize everyone learns differently and like to get creative to make sure the science spe... Read more

I'm good with languages and have learned a lot... Read more

Stephanie
English and History
I am passionate about learning and personal growth. I often enroll in online classes, read, and listen to podcasts/audiobooks to gain knowledge on various topics. I think this passion translates into being a good teacher, as well. During high school, I volunteered at the local elementary school tutoring second graders who struggled in math and reading. Teachers are often unable to provide as much one-on-one assistance as they would like, and I was able to assist more in this role. In law... Read more
