I am an experienced Tutor and Paraprofessional. I have worked with various age levels teaching and tutoring a variety of subjects. My specialty is French but I am very well educated in Liberal Sciences such as Biology, Chemistry and Anatomy & Physiology. Also, I am good at organization and study skills. Lastly, I can teach Reading, English and Writing. I have an updated fingerprint clearance with OSPI which allows me to work for Seattle Public Schools as an independent tutor. I am familiar with Academic Standards for children in Seattle Public Schools grades K-12 in Reading and Math and I am qualified and able to help students improve their academic scores on standardized tests.

My style is friendly and patient. I want you to succeed and know you can! It's just a question of meeting you and figuring out what your learning style works for you best. I am your friend and counselor and you will feel comfortable and have fun learning.
I am well educated and well traveled. I speak French and Hebrew and completed my BA in French Language and Literature at the Sorbonne in Paris. I also completed advanced level Liberal Science Courses with Honors.

Thanks for choosing me as your tutor!

Sincerely,
Elissa
