Was your child struggling during the last academic year? Tutoring allows your child to work at his/her own pace and provides instant one-to-one feedback from a real person. Many of my students ask for homework support and help with study skills. I also use a variety of workbooks and lessons for practice and drills beyond the homework when needed. It’s a safe space for your child to ask as many questions as needed to better understand a concept.
About me: I’m a 56 year old woman who has been tutoring for 19 years. I briefly taught as a middle school teacher, but quickly moved to tutoring as I preferred working with small groups and individuals. There’s nothing I enjoy more than relating academic concepts to real world interests for students. If they can relate to it, they can understand it. I try to make learning fun! 😀
I specialize in:
* Reading Comprehension for Language Arts - (grades 3-12)
* Writing, Grammar, and Punctuation - (grades 3-12)
* Elementary and Middle School Math
* 9th Grade Math, Algebra I, and Geometry
* Test Preparation for the PSAT, SAT, ACT, and GED
My fee is $50 per hour, and I schedule in blocks of 1, 1.5, or 2 hours.
I can meet with you at your home, my home in South Venice, or at the Public Library.
Sorry, but I do not travel to Bradenton and North Sarasota.
