Summary
As a seasoned educator, I support student learning in personalized tutoring and in teaching diverse groups of students both in the classroom setting and privately at their homes. My approach builds strong relationships and enhances critical thinking, evidenced by the rapport built between tutor and student, as well as peers, when in a classroom setting. Experienced in online and in-person teaching, I've managed both modes of learning while providing clear and constant communication to the parents of my students. Not only do I have experience as a one-on-one tutor for students in public schools, but I also have experience in the classroom setting facilitating learning among other homeschooling families. I, too, am a homeschooling parent who has been a part of Pacific Coast Academy, which allows me greater insight as to how to help support the student and parent during this season of life.
