Experienced Tutor for Reading/Writing and Elementary Subjects

Hi!

My name is Kelsey and I am currently a senior at The Evergreen State College. My focus there is on education, sociology, and writing. I plan on going into their Master's in Teaching program to become an elementary teacher. While I have my main focuses at Evergreen, I've also been taking classes in all main subject areas to have a more well-rounded education.

Since I was 17 I have spent time volunteering in elementary schools. I have been a classroom assistant/tutor for grades K-6. Most recently, I have run reading groups and helped individual kids with reading and writing at an elementary school, helped with an after school art program, and tutored individual kids with all subjects at various elementary schools.

While my experience lies mainly with elementary ages, I am also able to tutor any age for reading/writing/literature/etc as well as study skills.

My methods vary according to the student and subject, especially since I try to find ways to make it fun and interesting to each individual. I believe in a lot of student/tutor interaction, getting to know one another (so I can understand how they learn best), and finding ways to make the subject or problems connect to the real world. Learning should be fun and relevant - something I strive to help make possible.

If this sounds like a fit, please feel free to get in touch!

Elementary (K-6th)

While studying education at The Evergreen State College, I have gained a lot of experience helping students with all elementary subjects by using various methods and strategies. While volunteering in a few elementary schools for the past four years, I've worked with groups of kids as well as individuals on reading, writing, math, science, social studies, and art.

Study Skills

Study skills are an important factor for success in school. My main goal is to help provide ideas and tools for the student to continue to use to help them think critically and be able to solve problems on their own. While guiding reading groups and working with individuals on all subjects, I have become familiar with many techniques and methods. Each child is different so certain techniques may work for one kid instead of another. As a tutor, I work with the child to discover what will help them... Read More
