I have been a substitute teacher in the Florida (Osceola County) and Kansas (Shawnee County) school systems. Since retirement from my full-time job as a computer programmer in 2010, I have been tutoring K-12, college and adult students.

During full-time employment, I taught adult co-workers how to use their computers and software that they needed to use in the performance of their job duties. I played an active part in helping my own children succeed in school. One holds a Master's degree in Elementary Education and the other finished coursework toward a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design. Both are also owners of their own businesses.

Coursework taken for my Bachelor's degree included satisfactory completion of Algebra, Calculus, Finite Math, and Discrete Math courses. I have always been an excellent reader, and thrived on getting above average grades in school in grammar and reading.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have been a substitute teacher in public school systems over the past five years. I've taught in middle school primarily over the past two years. Two of my long-term class assignments have been with 7th and 8th grade pre-algebra and advanced math students. I've also completed college level algebra classes.
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

Over the past three years, I have been substituting in the public school system. This has afforded me teaching experience in various subjects, in group settings and in one-on-one sessions. I have been successful at teaching children basic skills and encouraging them to study beyond what is being required in class in order to better prepare themselves for the future. I also have taken and passed the tests that are administered by Wyzant for Reading, Spelling and Elementary Math.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I have had much experience in teaching middle school math over the past few years, and am certainly able to help teach math concepts at the elementary level.
General Computer

General Computer

I have worked on computers since 1982. I am most knowledgeable using Windows but also have experience using MACs. I have experience in computer setup, troubleshooting and updating of software and hardware.
Homeschool

Homeschool

I have experience in tutoring students who are being schooled in their homes. One of the student feedback statements on my file applauds me for helping a student understand more in a couple of hours than he had all school year. I have close to 10 years of experience in teaching various subjects to children and adults, at home and online, one-on-one and in groups.
HTML

HTML

I am a retired computer programmer who has built pages using html.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I've been teaching math in the middle schools most of this school year, so I am familiar with prealgebra material.
Reading

Reading

I have successfully raised children who possess great reading skills. I became an avid reader as early as elementary school. I have worked in the clerical field where I was expected to be able to proofread the spelling of others and make sure what they had written was grammatically correct. Spelling and grammar are definitely the background to good reading skills.
Web Design

Web Design

I hold a BA in Computer Systems. I have gained expertise working on a variety of platforms, during my career as a Computer Programmer, as well as during my tenure as a college student. After retirement, I have continued to create/manage websites for small business owners.
Writing

Writing

During the past couple of years I have assisted students with writing assignments in the correct format for college level English composition classes. Not only were these students challenged with writing their papers, but they were also non-Americsns who were not very familiar with the English language.

Knowledge and Patience Tutor

Ms. Wanda G you are amazing tutor! Your passion and dedication is beyond words! Thank you for getting me through this hard quick semester, I honestly would have never passed if it was not for your help! Thank you so much once again!

patient

She was very patient with my son who has a very negative attitude towards school. I appreciate her time and effort given as well as her extra learning materials given.

Tutor responded:

I pray that he has changed his attitude and become more positive. I remember having a teacher that the whole class disliked. She had been our 4th grade teacher and we were glad to leave her class but then she got reassigned as our5th grade teacher the next year, and it was devastating. Life sometimes throws us a curve ball, but we can still adjust and hit a homerun.

Perfect teacher.

My son loves her way of teaching. She is an awesome lady. She met twice with my second grader son and helped him understand some concepts on reading and writing. Wanda has what teacher needs to be qualified to teach in schools.

Thank you so much for your comments. I wish nothing but the best for your son.

Excellent tutor

I was recently told my child was having trouble in reading. I contacted Wanda and spoke to Her who was very friendly and helpful! I immediately set an appointment for a the same week. We sat down and discussed my child’s plan and goal once she begins and I am very pleased so far with Wanda

My 13 year old loves her so I know she is patient.

Wanda is a very knowledgeable, kind, and down to earth teacher with patience while teaching her passions. She drove 40 or so minutes in traffic to reach us. Whenever my daughter felt stumped she would show her different ways until she finally got it. She's a God send. I already booked her for next week, I am very grateful to have found her.

Tutor responded:

I definitely enjoyed working with your daughter. Regretfully, the pandemic caused us to cut her lessons short but I'm hopeful that she has been able to successfully strive for the mastery of the mysteries of math.
