Sara
Tutor for multiple subjects
I believe that all children can learn, but sometimes they need to hear the material in a different way. A tutor needs to be able to present material in many different ways. I can do this. I am able to teach all ages from preschool thru adult. I can relate to the middle school student as well. I have been an educator for 31 years. I have been a tutor for 17 years.

ADD/ADHD
I have successfully tutored ADD/ADHD children for 12 years. I have also taken some classes in special Education working toward certification. I work with the children without emphasizing the disability. I stress what they are capable of doing and show the student ways to learn and do more. I work on the material that is needed to be doing well in school. I use the IEP (if there is one) as a guide for instruction.

Sara really worked with my son to help him improve his English and science score on the act. He recently took the test and scored a composite 30. His science was a 34 and English a 31. The best he had ever scored in English before Sara was a 28. She took the time to go over rules and strategies with him and it payed off. Thanks for all the time and effort you have given him.

ACT math. Seems to be very patient in teaching. She helped me to understand the math problems and explained how to get the right answer.

First meeting was nothing but learning and getting to know each other. We did touch on some math (which is my nemesis ) however Sara has a way with helping one to understand. She undertsnds everyone learns different & she will explain things different ways until your light bulb goes off. There is no doubt she was meant to be a teacher, one of a kind and excited to know I have her in my corner. I am excited and look forward to working with her again. Thank you Sara, you exceeded my expectations and it's truly appreciated.
