About
Montessori-certified elementary teacher with 20 years of experience helping children grow as readers, writers, and confident communicators. I offer child-centered, one-on-one support for students through age 12 in:
• Reading, writing, and grammar
• Outlining and summarizing novels
• Public speaking and presentation skills
• Early reading and writing for young learners (Montessori + phonics based)
Rates:

If you’re looking for warm, consistent support to keep your child learning and growing—especially over the summer—I’d love to help design a learning series that takes them far.

She kept a very good relationship with the students and the parents, willing to listen and communicate.

She is perfect fit to my son. She is very patient and good at observing his needs in every session. My son has ADHD, so sometime his performance is not there. But by the end of session, he managed to finish study. She knows how to take care of persons feeling. My son who is defiance is showing full respect to her. I also appreciate her ideas of learning topics. As an example, they worked writing an opinion to city about what my son has interested in. It is not like the way typical school is doing. She is definitely good at finding what's my son's curiosity.
She has genuine care for us too. We are very happy to find her for our tutor.

I have so enjoyed getting to know and work with your son, as well as your family. It has been a joy to discover his interests and help him find ways to express them. I have learned so much from working with him and am so happy that we have learned to work together. Thank you for the opportunity to come into your family circle and share what I can. Thank you also, for sharing with me! - Teresa

Ms Teresa is a very kind and gentle person and meets the child where they are at. My daughter loves being with her. She teaches the reading and math really well and makes sure the child is happy with the learning. Overall, she is a caring, good person that I would like to keep in my child's life for any tutoring needs.

Sharmilee,
Thank you for reaching out to me. It has been a joy working with your very creative daughter! She challenges me to make every lesson both interesting and fun. She loves to learn and finds value in whatever we work on, often in ways I had not thought of. I really appreciate being able to participate in your family's learning and growing. Thank you. - Teresa

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Details:
My first meeting and assessment of the student is complementary.
My hourly fee is $45.00 with a 10% discount when 10 sessions are prepaid together.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to meet the student and parent to assess what is the best way to help. I try to understand the person's learning style. Then we set up a plan of how often we will meet and what approach I will use. The local libraries are excellent places to meet. We can book tutoring rooms. I also come to client homes. I do not charge for our first meeting.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Master of Education degree and I am a certified early childhood (3-6 years old) and elementary (6-12 years old) Montessori educator. I have also held a conditional WA State Teaching Certificate for teaching in elementary classrooms. I have worked in Montessori for 20 years and also home schooled my own 6 children for a number of years. I have taken Spalding phonics training and used it extensively while teaching.
