FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was working as a bookkeeper after college, and I realized I wanted to make a difference in children's lives. I enrolled in a Masters program in Special Education, and I haven't looked back! It's been ten years since I made the decision to teach, and in that time I have taught 5th-8th graders in special education, general education, and Common Core Math Plus classes. Now I'm working as a Curriculum Writer, and I love to tutor because it keeps me connected to students and lets me continue to make a direct, personal impact on students.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
Math tutoring - EOG prep, summer skills refreshers, homework help, standard-by-standard support, data-based interventions for struggling students, and challenge projects for students enrolled in Common Core Plus classes that benefit to. An extra push and one-on-one attention.
- Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
I recently had my last tutoring session with a student that I tutored throughout her middle school career. She has grown so much in her math skills and confidence, and she is a wonderful, caring girl who I am lucky to know. She is ready to move on to high school and I am happy that she and I will stay in touch as she takes on this new adventure, and I am now tutoring her younger brother!
