Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I offer a student-based approach to tutor or enrich students outside of the classroom! Building a relationship with my students is important. I build this relationship by getting to know them, differentiating instruction to best accommodate their learning styles, and by making learning fun through hands on activities. My favorite part of teaching is discovering new information with my students. I'm a passionate learner and when my students show that passion for learning through finding success in learning, I know that I am being successful in my work!

We would highly recommend Ms. McIntosh for private tutoring and enrichment! She has been working with our 9 yr-old son, and he loves her and we do too. Our son does great in school, but we wanted to give him some one-on-one time with writing. Now he is transitioning to enrichment in other subjects with really fun projects (book club, science projects, writing letters, math concepts...). In looking for resources to provide our son with the extra challenge he needs, we found there are not many options outside of the chains that provide basic tutoring or help with homework, which is not what our son needs. We wanted to give him more enrichment outside of class and cover many areas, rather than one kind of enrichment class at a time. Ms. McIntosh developed a plan just for our son. Ms. McIntosh used to be one of his teachers, and we loved her then too!

CJ is an excellent teacher. I feel that CJ knows children well. My daughter is 12-year old. When she reads, she is careless and does not pay attention to details. My daughter also does not think much. CJ quickly identified these problems and started working on it on the first day. CJ is also helping my daughter with her writing. CJ is extremely inspiring when she teaches. We are very happy with the way CJ tutors my daughter. We will definitely keep CJ for a long while.

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    I hold a Bachelor's of Science In education. I am also certified to teach Early Childhood-6th grade all subjects. I am also certified to teach science up to 8th grade and ESL up to 12th grade. I have an extensive background in integrated language arts. I was an English major for 3 years with an interest in becoming a high school English teacher. While I did not follow that path, I feel extremely comfortable tutoring high school and college students in reading and writing.

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I have taught students of all ages. My classroom experience covers preschool classrooms through fifth grade. My tutoring experience covers grades up through high school. I have also taught swim lessons to students that were six months old to adult students!

  • Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

    I recently finished up a unit on the circulatory system with a student. We studied blood, blood vessels, and the heart over the course of two months. At the end of the unit we dissected a sheep heart and an earthworm. He was able to identify the different parts of the heart and their functions.
