Anthony V. says, "I had a great experience with my biology tutor. She explained difficult topics in a simple way and made sure I truly understood the material, not just memorized it. She was patient and helpful, and I felt much more confident for my quizzes and exams. I definitely recommend her to anyone needing help with biology."See more

YOU CAN TEACH a 4-7-YEAR-OLD TO READ AND I CAN HELP YOU! Three Types of Adult Support I Provide for Teaching Young Children: 1. Private coaching for parents or teachers, on an hourly basis on Zoom or in your home in the Seattle area ($60 per hour) 2. In-home consultations for parents where I can help you set up a nurturing and effective learning environment for your child ($100 per hour in the Seattle area *) 3. Seminars for parents, teachers, families, communities, churches, homeschool groups, PTAs, and friends who CAN teach 4-7-year-old children. Learn to read in a step by step, systematic, simple way! ($200 per hour) To be successful, parents and educators will find it invaluable to know: • How children learn • That 0-6-year-olds have an absorbent mind *, through which they effortlessly absorb information • That children love to learn • That there is a dependable, step by step reading sequence to follow that can empower anyone to teach • How to use hands-on reading materials that are like a series of card games so that children can almost teach themselves to read. See that these materials are tailored to the needs of young children • How to establish simple routines at home or school of 10-15 minutes per day where practicing or “playing with the materials” enables children to successfully read! • It is not difficult for most children to learn to read if they have the right tools and adults who understand a simple sequence. As a Montessori teacher with 25+ years' experience teaching reading and writing to children 4-7 years old, including my own six children, I am passionate about showing adults how they CAN teach children to read. Let’s start a revolution in learning! What I offer to Parents, Teachers, and All Who Would Support Children: 1. I provide private consultations and seminars for parents and teachers. If this is done in connection with tutoring, it will maximize the tutoring opportunity for children. Parents will be more conscious of developmental needs and will be more engaged. They can better understand and so support the child's efforts with hands-on reading materials. Simple feedback and demonstrations to you as your child is learning can be a great help. 2. I also provide seminars in which I communicate all of the above in further detail about how children learn and also lay out a clear sequence of how to teach reading. This can be step by step training for parents, teachers, and others! I use power points and other presentation materials to give detailed instructions about how to teach. I demonstrate the use of the materials and make recommendations. Understand how children learn and how to ensure the building of a successful reading foundation. *Please note I charge transportation fee of $1.00 per mile for transportation.See more

Mo V. says, "Trish is extremely cognizant of my needs as a student. She’s also a wonderful teacher who makes you feel at ease when corrected. These are some of the most important traits you need in a language teacher. It's hard to speak a second language correctly 100% of the time. I’ve lived in the US for 13 years now, and I still struggle with tenses, plurals, and colloquial terms. During our weekly sessions, Trish has been able to correct all of these weak points. I've learned the 'spirit' of English to speak more like a native speaker, which is my ultimate goal. She also helps me understand the nuance of tenses, something my husband has struggled to explain to me for the past 10 years. I'm just happy that I found Trish as my teacher, and I'm finally on my way to speaking even better English than ever."See more

Reyna D. says, "A Truly Exceptional Tutor We’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with Mandy for many years, from my daughter’s early days in elementary school all the way through high school, and I can confidently say that she has been an incredible part of my daughter’s academic journey. From the beginning, Mandy showed patience, dedication, and a genuine passion for helping students succeed. She has an amazing ability to explain concepts clearly, adapt her teaching style to my daughter’s needs, and make learning both engaging and enjoyable. Over the years, I have watched my daughter grow in confidence, develop stronger study habits, and achieve goals she once thought were out of reach — and so much of that progress is thanks to the support and encouragement she received during her sessions. What truly sets Mandy apart is her consistency and commitment. She celebrates my daughter’s strengths while helping her overcome challenges, always showing kindness and professionalism. As a parent, it has been incredibly reassuring to know my daughter has someone in her corner who genuinely cares about her success. I am deeply grateful for everything Mandy has done. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Any student would be lucky to learn from her."See more

I have only just met Frank, talked about tutoring goals and teaching approaches and set up a schedule for working together. On first meeting, he is intelligent, personable and enthusiastic. My rating is, therefore, based upon first impressions. I will be much more able to speak about my experience with him in a month or so.See more
