About Rebecca


Bio

I am a former elementary school teacher who has tutored students at every stage from kindergarten through college. My specialization is English, both reading and writing. Developing a lifelong love for and competency in reading is the most fundamental part of academic success, because without it, learning other subjects can become virtually impossible. Helping students develop a passion for literature is my passion and why I love tutoring.

At the moment, I can only tutor online. I live in Georgia and I'd love to work with you or your child.

Approved Subjects

Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

I am a former elementary school teacher. I taught all subjects for third grade, except French. Additionally, I have privately tutored many elementary students through a former company with which I worked. My methods for working with students depend on their needs, but primarily include either their own school materials or workbooks which I provide. I meet with the students before class, assess their skill levels in the subjects where they need assistance, and then tailor programs to meet their needs.
ESL/ESOL

ESL/ESOL

I have experience tutoring ESL students from elementary school through college courses. Whether your goal is improving vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, or some combination, I can help.
Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I have worked with students at all levels on essays for both humanities and STEM courses. I'm familiar with a variety of citation methods and can help clarify that process. Whether you need help with generating a topic, organizing researched information, or editing written works, I would be happy to help.
Fiction Writing

Fiction Writing

I have worked with English students at all levels from kindergarten through graduate school. I am a popular fanfiction writer under a pen name and I have experience editing children's books prior to publication. Whether you struggle with character generation, world building, pacing, or editing completed works, I would be happy to help.
Hard of Hearing

Hard of Hearing

Several of my family members have hearing loss, so I have learned how to communicate effectively despite hearing loss. I ask students their familiarity with reading lips, whether one ear hears better than the other, and whether volume or clarity is a greater issue. I then modify the teaching environment to maximize student understanding and success. Background noise, positioning of chairs, and clarity of speech are all important elements to consider.
Homeschool

Homeschool

I have worked with students both in the classroom and in private tutoring since the 1990s and watching a child light up when he or she masters a topic is one of my greatest joys. In addition to working with homeschooling families over the years, I homeschooled my nephew for a year, so I understand the challenges which can arise. I am best qualified to work with elementary students on any subject, but can work up through high school with students on non-STEM subjects.
SAT Reading

SAT Reading

I have tutored scores of students in preparation for their SAT test. With a variety of preparatory materials and strategies, I can help you achieve your goals.
