English (ESL), Elementary Student & Psychology Tutor

Kasia F.

I hold a Master’s degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in critical and community psychology. My graduate training focused on human development, communication, adolescent psychology, and the social contexts that influence learning. This background allows me to tutor English, elementary education subjects, and psychology with both academic depth and a strong understanding of how students grow intellectually and emotionally.

My teaching experience spans over five years in a variety of settings. I have tutored elementary-aged children in one-on-one environments while working as a nanny, supporting them with reading comprehension, writing skills, homework completion, and study habits. I have also taught yoga classes to both children and adults, which strengthened my ability to break down complex skills into manageable steps and adapt instruction to different learning styles. In professional settings, I have trained and supervised staff as a manager, developing onboarding materials and coaching adults to improve communication and performance. Additionally, I completed a 40-hour Registered Behavior Technician training, which provided structured, evidence-based strategies for skill-building, positive reinforcement, and individualized learning plans.

My tutoring approach is student-centered, structured, and supportive. I prioritize clear goal-setting, skill scaffolding, and practical application. Whether working with an elementary student developing foundational reading skills or a psychology student exploring theoretical frameworks, I focus on building confidence alongside competence. I aim to create a learning environment where students feel safe asking questions, making mistakes, and steadily progressing toward mastery.
