Teaching is my passion and I especially enjoy tutoring in basic Math, Geometry, and Algebra I & II. I also enjoy teaching Reading and Language Arts. I am experienced in working with children, youth, and adults as well as students who have special needs (including gifted and learning disabilities). I make an effort & spend as much of my own time necessary to come prepared with a plan that will maximize the student's educational needs and goals. I am also very flexible and friendly and I try...

I am a licensed elementary education with training in all areas of special education, as all recently licensed teachers must be trained in these areas. I also have worked for 5 years as a volunteer at Camp Carroll for handicapped kids, including working 1:1 with one of the preschoolers with Autism and teaching swimming lessons to several of the kids with Autism. I worked as a nanny for a family with a 12 y/o girl who had Autism for 1 year. I've worked as a substitute aide in the public school system, working 1:1 with a 4th grader with Autism. I also have a cousin, with whom I am quite close, who has Aspergers syndrome, which is an Autism spectrum disorder.

Theresa W. was a wonderful tutor, she was very patient the whole time I needed her. She made my first time using WyzAnt a good experience.

Theresa was a great help to me. She was very patient with me. Theresa made the same problems I had been struggling with very clear to understand. Theresa is a wonderful tutor!!!

Theresa was able to meet with me last minute when I was failing my online algebra 2 course. She was very understanding of my situation and eager to help. My schedule is very busy, but she was able to work with me and meet at my convenience. It's obvious that she has a passion for education and helping others. Even after 6+ hours of cramming for my final exam she was enthusiastic and kept me focused. I would recommend Theresa to anyone seeking help in math. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, she is also friendly and easy to talk to. Thanks so much Theresa. I passed!!
