I am a National Board Certified Teacher. I am certified to teach kindergarten through 8th grade. I have experience teaching throughout these grade levels as well as working with individual and small group tutoring sessions. Tutoring gives me the opportunity to work individually with various types of students. As an educator, I know that different students have different learning styles and learning needs. Sometimes it is very difficult for students to learn everything in a larger group during the regular school year. The tutoring atmosphere allows the student to relax, work on the specific skills, and take that skill to mastery. I like teaching reading focusing on fluency, grammar, and comprehension. I like to teach math through a problem solver's eye. I like to use games, technology, puzzles, and teacher/student made activities. I like to use active learning so that the student can participate in real life, real time learning before we work on the skill on paper.

The exciting part of the process comes when I can accurately match the learning style, the instructional materials and tools, and the interests of the student to the needs of that particular student. I have taught a variety of grade levels and I am very knowledgeable about the bench mark skills or each grade level. Students may become discouraged when learning becomes difficult. It is very important for me to understand the small pieces of a skill that will help the student to be able to work on a skill with the confidence that learning can happen. Learning is an adventure in every way!

Patient Tutor

Cynthia helped my son with dividing decimals. She was very nice and quiet spoken. When we arrived, she was working and had to get organized in which I had a little problem with. My son said he did not understand her method of teaching. Also, he received a C on the homework she helped him with. He said he got one wrong so not sure how he got the grade. Anyway, the distance to meet made my final decision not to use Cynthia at this time.

Showing progress

My child is showing progress, I am very happy with tutoring services. My child likes Ms. Cynthia and she keeps her engaged. If you are looking for someone who knows how to teach small children, you may want to inquire about Ms. Cynthia.

AMAZING!!!!!

She was exactly what my little one needed. As soon as the session was finished, my little one asked when she could meet with her again. She is patient, supportive and really knows her stuff.

Excellent tutor

Cynthia is teaching our nephew with math and he's so excited working with her. He has a problem following in class because he says the teacher rushes through the lesson; however he said he really understands when working with Ms. Hicks because she takes her time...
