Hi! I am Heather! I’m a certified first grade teacher with 9 years of classroom experience, and I absolutely love helping young learners grow in confidence and ability.
I specialize in working with students in Kindergarten through 2nd grade, focusing on the foundational skills that set them up for long term success, especially in reading, phonics, writing, and math.
In my classroom, I’ve seen firsthand how much growth can happen in just one year. Students come in still learning their letters and sounds, and by the end of the year, they’re reading, writing, and thinking independently. That transformation is what I’m passionate about, and I bring that same approach to my tutoring sessions.
My teaching style is:
- Supportive and encouraging
- Structured but engaging
- Focused on building confidence and independence
I meet each child where they are and create personalized lessons based on their needs, whether they need extra support, skill building, or a confidence boost.
Some areas I commonly support:
• Phonics and early reading skills
• Reading fluency and comprehension
• Writing and sentence structure
• Math foundations (addition, subtraction, number sense)
My goal is not just improvement, but helping your child feel proud, capable, and excited to learn.
I offer after school sessions and look forward to supporting your child’s growth!
Let’s help your child go from ‘I can’t’ to ‘I can!'
