Introduction: Thank you for clicking on my ad. My name is Marci and I have been in the field of elementary school education since 1984. I have taught Kindergarten- 4th grade in a self contained classroom in the public and private school environment. My specialty is phonemic awareness, "phonics" and reading comprehension skills. Children need to be able to understand what they are reading is just not words written down, but they convey a meaning. In addition I have noticed that many children need assistance with grammar and writing skills. Knowing grammar skills is crucial to understanding content and having the ability to write clear and concise sentences and paragraphs. I also tutor elementary math. Children do well with one on one tutoring. All the tutor's attention is applied to them and there is no competition from other children desiring the tutor's assistance. Summer is approaching quickly. Many children have fallen behind due to the pandemic . The summer break is a great time to bring your child up to speed and ready for the next school year. I am very patient and respond well to clients and their parents.

Marci worked with 2 of my children tutoring math skills. My children were very behind. She was very patient and showed them that math can be fun using real life situations. In addition, I hired her to work with my children the past 2 years during the Summer months, so my children would be ready for the next grade level Erica J

Miss Marci was fantastic with my child, Bobbie. Bobbie, who is 7 years old had noticeably fallen behind in their reading and social confidence. After working with Marci over the past several months, I and Bobbi’s teachers, have noticed an improvement across many settings. I highly recommend Marci, as a skilled tutor with many years of teaching experience, spanning a range of ages and children’s abilities.

Marci is an excellent tutor. My 3 year old went from knowing 5 letters to knowing all of them and their sounds within 1 semester. Highly recommend

Marci was patient and understanding, both with my child and me. My child is eight years old and has really struggled with reading. She was playful with her techniques which allowed him to feel safe and less apprehensive. His reading skills over the last six months have drastically improved. I would encourage anyone that is looking for a tutor to use Marci! She has almost thirty years as an educator. I am happy we found her.
