Introduction: I personalize instruction for each student and this approach makes all the difference. I assess and plan before our meet-ups and actively communicate with parents to keep them in the loop. My excitement for learning motivates even those that think they will dislike the process. I love learning and have gained numerous skills and approaches to motivate, encourage and create a dynamic relationship with the student. Teaching is my passion and calling.

I've had the pleasure of being a close friend and colleague of Cristie Bennett, founder of Beyond Tutoring, for many years. In this time, I have seen the dilligent care and academic consideration she provides for all her students. She employs tremendous creativity toward teaching to the strengths of the children she works with and at the same time bolsters their areas of weakness. She is an incredibly thoughtful educator and is very adept at discovering how to motivate and inspire her students to achieve. She teaches to the "whole child" and in this capacity is effective in her academic planning and execution.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge a flat weekly rate. I encourage a commitment to at least once a week. My fees are generally less, if folks travel to me and a bit more to visit their home. I have a simple contract that spells out my commitment to you and your responsibility to be prepared, on-time and keep cancellations to a minimum for student consistency and tutor sanity. ;) I LOVE TEACHING - I don't like accounting ;) and all the awkwardness that comes with having to ask for you to pay for my time. Please READ the contract - and help us to have a professional open relationship with clear communication. *FREE session - when you refer me out - and that individual hires me. YES! (Thank you).
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Usually, the process starts w/ a phone call and then we meet for the first tutoring session. We converse before the tutoring and then the student receives a full session. I always invite parents to stay if they desire but they must sit down and be actively involved. No hovering lol or you'll get a homework assignment ;)
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a CA credentialed educator w/ ESL accreditation. Liberal Studies major w/ a math emphasis. Magna cum Laude graduate w/ honors in the field. B.A. and A.A. Volunteered as a literacy tutor for adults, at the El Segundo Library. Developed a creative math game for my students. The concept and directions on how to play --- (Muliplication Dice) -was printed in a national magazine: The Mailbox Aug./Sept. 2009 pg. 44. Own a TUTORING business - Beyond Tutoring.
