Motivated Educator with Proven Results

Barrett W.

I hold a strong educational background that supports my work as an experienced K–8 educator. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Pittsburgh and went on to earn my graduate degree from Roosevelt University in Chicago. I later obtained my California Multiple Subject Teaching Credential from California State University.

I have been teaching for over ten years and have spent the last three years actively coaching teachers, helping them refine their instructional practice. Throughout my career, I have taught and supported students across grades K–8 in both whole-classroom settings and small-group or one-on-one environments. My experience spans general education, special education, intervention, and I have consistently helped students make measurable academic gains year after year.

My instructional approach emphasizes clarity, accessibility, and student confidence. I specialize in mathematics and pride myself on making the subject approachable for learners of all ability levels. At the same time, I am well-versed in supporting students across all core subjects. Whether teaching young learners or coaching older students through more complex material, I tailor my instruction to each student’s needs, build strong learning routines, and maintain high expectations paired with meaningful support.

I am committed to helping students succeed, grow their skills, and genuinely enjoy the learning process.
