I have been teaching over 20 years.

Students do not like a subject because they feel they are not good at it. Once they become good at it they realize they actually like it. This inspired confidence in kids. I will modify any lesson until the students grasp it. I will reteach in as many different ways as needed until your child gets it. I have tutored many students over the years and have 3 kids of my own.
I teach fifth grade math and go for training to keep up with the common core and all the newest philosophies.
I have been teaching ELA for over 20 years and am a certified reading teacher although I teach all subjects.
I will work with you until you understand the work and more importantly build up your confidence in your areas of weakness.
