Elementary (K-6th)

I have my BA in both elementary and special education. I am certified to teach all subjects k-8 in Washington State. I am certified to teach all subjects k-6 in Colorado. I have three years experience teaching elementary students, as well as prior tutoring experience with high school aged youth.
Handwriting

Handwriting

Aspies like myself are known for having terrible handwriting. I spent years training my handwriting to be legible and pleasant (at my mother's insistence). The most important aspect of handwriting is to have a consistent system for building the letters that is simple, fast, and easy. It takes practice, and is not very fun, but the end result is well worth it. I am K-6 certified for Colorado and K-8 "certificated" for Washington state.
Soccer

Soccer

I played soccer all through school until I tore out my ACL. I love the game, and believe that the best approach is to begin with individual skills training, and physical conditioning, and then to integrate weekly scrimmages and inter-team challenges. I also believe in providing additional activities that students can do on their own time to further develop skills, such as hacky-sack/footbag.
Study Skills

Study Skills

I believe qualifying for college at age eight is indicative of some very advanced study skills. I have a number of "study hacks" that have helped me and which I believe will help my students. When I did go to college, I was in the top 5% of community college students nation-wide (Phi Theta Kappa honor society) and in university was top 3% nationally (Phi Kappa Phi honor society). That isn't something one can luck into.
