Jackie
Patient and Knowledgeable Tutor Specializing in ESL and K-6 Reading
I am passionate about the learning process and helping others exceed their potential. As a trained ESL instructor and parent reading volunteer I have witnessed the joy of students doing something they didn't think they could. For ESL students, I focus on their short and long term goals i.e. written and/or oral language, writing, citizenship testing, and those language questions that affect their day-to-day life. I will assign relevant homework that will directly focus on the student's needs... Read more
