Before I became a teacher more than a decade ago, I was an award-winning music journalist, editor, and author of books on a wide array of subjects. As a teacher, I have worked in schools that range from "in-need" to one of the top public schools in the country. I have worked with students ranging from 6th grade to 12th grade, and taught subjects that include English (ELA), Journalism, Composition (essay-writing and grammar focus), and Creative Writing. I have tutored students through the ... Read more

My name is Bunie, but you knew that already. My strategy for teaching is very much the same. Helping out with making the links between what we know and what we think we do not know. After High school, I completed the International Baccalaureate diploma in Fife, Scotland. My dissertation was in theoretical genetics. It was also fun to be in a northern town with 3 beaches and more double rainbows than I have seen anywhere since! My undergraduate degree was in England at a student village ... Read more

Bryan
Certified and Experienced! Specializing in English and MAth
About a decade ago I graduated from college. I was a sharp kid (I graduated with honors) but I didn't have much direction. I fell into finance (that was the thing for sharp kids to do at the time) and after some ups and downs, I decided that career path wasn't for me. Between that point and the present there was a teacher shortage, and I got recruited to teach math and special education. In exchange for spending a few years at a high need school in the city, the state paid for my graduate deg... Read more
Sari
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
