About Georgette

Bio

Hi! I am a licensed and experienced high school teacher. I’ve taught social studies for ten years and am currently on maternity leave looking to still support students through tutoring. I’ve taught AP Government, AP Comparative Government, Honors Government, Government, Honors U.S. History, and World History. While teaching, I was a member of our school’s literacy leadership team where we prepared thoughtful ways to encourage teachers to incorporate literacy strategies in their lessons....

Hi! I am a licensed and experienced high school teacher. I’ve taught social studies for ten years and am currently on maternity leave looking to still support students through tutoring. I’ve taught AP Government, AP Comparative Government, Honors Government, Government, Honors U.S. History, and World History. While teaching, I was a member of our school’s literacy leadership team where we prepared thoughtful ways to encourage teachers to incorporate literacy strategies in their lessons. Additionally, I was a member of the Understanding Backwards Design leadership committee to help teachers prepare thoughtful, engaging lessons to meet all students at their level. I also ran our school’s freshmen mentor program for two years. I assisted in helping freshmen acquire organizational skills to keep their classes and assignments orderly and prioritized, taught freshmen how to develop time management skills, and provided social/emotional support for the many challenges presented in high school. Collectively, these experiences have given me the skills needed to help tailor our tutoring sessions together.

I enjoy working with students individually as it gives us the necessary time to focus on their specific needs. I find it to be helpful in not only providing content support but helping students overcome their weaknesses and give them the confidence to complete their assignments and participate in class discussions. I am able to help support students in strengthening organizational and executive functioning skills across all of their classes. That can include organizing materials, prioritizing assignments, and preparing students for all the challenges that come with remote learning. Additionally, I am familiar with learning management systems like Schoology. I can help your student get organized and stay on top of assignments.

Any assignments and resources are very helpful for me to maximize our time together and make it as meaningful and helpful for your success and growth. I look forward to working with you!

Excellent Tutor!

Georgette is always prepared, professional and patient. Our son needed help getting organized and staying on top of his assignments and after one lesson with Georgette we saw improvement. She consistently found ways to create efficiencies and simplify tasks so our son could get through all of his assignments. Thanks to her, he finished the school year strong. We 100% would recommend Georgette for other students struggling to stay on task and look forward to working with her in the future.
