I am an energetic and experienced tutor. I have been tutoring for over 25 years. I tutor Reading and English K-12, and all other subjects K-8. I also tutor in ITBS, ACT, and ASVAB Testing. I not only work with my students on their academics, but I also build their confidence and self esteem. I would love the opportunity to work with you or your child....
ADD/ADHD
I have worked with ADD/ADHD children for over 20 years. I assist my students with the strategies and skills to work up to their academic potential. I have also attended numerous seminars on the subject of ADD/ADHD. I also assist the parents by helping them with successful homework organization methods and behavior modifications that they can implement at home. I have worked with students on a one-to-one basis and in small/large groups. I believe I have had great success in this area.

My 9-year old daughter has been working with Susan in reading over the summer. Susan has impressed me with her knowledge about teaching reading at not only the elementary level, but also much higher level. From the testing to understand my daughter's reading level to choosing the best materials and approach to improve her reading comprehension, vocabulary, and and writing, Susan has been showing great dedication and experiences that make my daughter open up her shell and thrive. I can tell that my daughter has improved a lot in reading skills and is able to develop good strategy when reading both fiction and non-fiction books. She is now reading and writing above her grade level. We are so thrilled to have Susan as our tutor.

Susan has done an excellent job helping my son regain his confidence. We hired her to help our son prepare for ITBS testing. He has struggled in this area and Susan not only has helped him prepare for the test, but she also helped him find his confidence to successfully take this test. This confidence has also spilled over into how he now feels about school overall. Susan is very knowledgeable, is patient, and really takes her time explaining things. When my son makes a mistake, she corrects him in a way to help him learn from it versus feeling bad about it. He knows his sessions with her are a huge help to him and he will go into taking the ITBS test for the first time feeling good about it. I highly recommend Susan to any student!

Susan K. has tutored my 11 year old daughter this summer in math. My child is very bright but struggles with math. Susan uses different teaching methods based on my daughter's learning style and adjusts to her needs and speed. For concepts that were difficult, she has been patient and made sure my daughter understood before moving on. She made my child feel comfortable. She has built my daughter's confidence with her math skills and given her ideas on different ways to learn the subject. Susan has also done a great job of providing feedback to me as the parent on areas to work on and what are my child's strengths. She has been very flexible with her schedule as well. I certainly would recommend her as a tutor for any subject.
