About Courtney


Bio

Hi, I'm Courtney! I have always had a passion for teaching. I volunteered in elementary classrooms from high school until I got a classroom of my own after college. I also have been tutoring students in various settings for the past ten years. I have tutored students in K-9th grade in many subjects (my strongest subjects being math and language arts). I have done private tutoring, tutoring through my school, and tutoring through tutoring companies.

Hi, I'm Courtney! I have always had a passion for teaching. I volunteered in elementary classrooms from high school until I got a classroom of my own after college. I also have been tutoring students in various settings for the past ten years. I have tutored students in K-9th grade in many subjects (my strongest subjects being math and language arts). I have done private tutoring, tutoring through my school, and tutoring through tutoring companies.

I have my multiple subject teaching credential along with a supplemental teaching credential in mathematics. I spent 5 years teaching 7th grade math and 3 years teaching 4th and 5th grade elementary students.

I am extremely dedicated and driven and I always strive to do my best for my students. I truly love teaching and am always willing to go the extra mile to create fun, engaging lessons for my students. Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Approved Subjects

Common Core

Common Core

I have my multiple subject teaching credential and was trained in teaching Common Core standards throughout college. I have also been teaching the Common Core math standards for the past 5 years to 7th graders and have tutored students in Common Core math and English Language Arts (mostly middle school students, but I also tutored a student privately beginning when she was in 2nd grade until she was in 4th grade).
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

My major in college was liberal studies, which is all about teaching elementary school students. I have my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, which primarily focuses on elementary school. I have volunteered in many elementary school classrooms, where I have worked with students individually and in small groups. Additionally, much of my tutoring experience has been with students in grades K-6, so I am familiar with teaching some of the elementary school standards.

Good teacher

My 9 yr old likes her and has asked for an extra hour with her each week. Courtney pushes her to excel but does so in a nice way, which does not make my daughter uncomfortable.

Helping guide student into fourth grade

Courtney is bringing new ideas to help our son as he is going into the fourth grade. Our son is always eager to tell us about his session when we get home. Glad we found a good tutor as our son is really excited about learning math.

Excellent teacher

My daughter loves working with Courtney. We are so happy to be working with her. She is professional and has well planned lessons. We are very lucky to have connected.

Knowledgeable and patient

Courtney sat with our twelve year old daughter who had trouble in 7th grade math. Courtney was able to determine what the issues were and came up with a game for the following week. She was patient throughout the session and very pleasant to speak with. We will definitely be using her again.
