I like solving problems. If you don't understand something, that means we need to approach it from a different angle. I've been known to include props, movies, puppets, silly songs, interpretive dance - whatever it takes to get the point across! I love breaking down complicated issues into little bites that make sense. And then putting it all together again do you can use the concepts.

I would love to talk to you about the areas where you are struggling to see what we can do to get you back on the right track.

Tutor with a real gift of teaching!

Sarah was great! She explained things so I was able to easily understand concepts that were beyond me. She broke things down into pieces so I could understand them from a high level as well as drill down into the nitty-gritty. I would highly recommend her!

Great teacher

She did a great job of helping teach me JavaScript form validation and learning how to use/create regular expressions. She made sure to go over each step in detail and helped me troubleshoot any errors I had along the way. She is very patient and is always explaining things in a easy to understand way.

Very knowledgeable!

Sarah made sure I understood the lesson I needed help with. She is patient and understanding! I look forward to working with her again. I’m still in the beginning stages of learning ASL and her session made it much easier to grasp.

Knowledgeable, patient and effective teaching style!

I was stuck on a project and could only see one way out, using PHP. Sarah was very patient, super knowledge and guided me step by step on how I could use css to achieve my goals. I was not confident in my css knowledge and use but she was an amazing teacher and provided me with valuable resources that I was definitely excited to continue my project after the session! I am so grateful for her help and I learned so much!

Awesome educator

Sarah really not only helped me but also taught me along the way. She pushed my thought process and didn't just give me the answers. She facilitated more as a guide.
