Hello! My name is Holli. I have a Master's degree in general psychology. I've been teaching for 35 years, including tutoring, coaching, K-12 schools, and college (psychology).

As a first grade teacher, I was exposed to children diagnosed with ADHD. One of my ADHD students was deemed to be at a capability level that would have generally demanded the presence of a paraprofessional in the classroom to help me teach this child. Because I worked at a charter school with limited funds, no full time help was assigned to my room. Regardless of the previous assessment of the child and the lack of full assistance, I was able to help this child make incredible gains to the point that the special needs assessor assigned to this child's case literally said this did not seem to be the child whose IEP plan she had read! With parental support and a focused learning environment that does not allow for excuses, I believe any child can learn. And, my students have proven that time and again. Contact me for more specific information on my teaching methods, and what to expect if you choose me as your child's tutor.
