Private ELA tutor with over six years experience and IEP focus.

I have over six years experience as a certified teacher working for public and private schools, and I am expanding as a private ELA tutor. Currently, I tutor students from across the country and I have used strategies and plans based on Common Core standards as well as Texas State standards. Though I follow national and Texas State standards for education, I make it my goal to teach my students independent study and testing strategies, as well as guiding them to develop critical thought processes. I am also able to focus on your child's IEP goals effectively as I have experience as a Special Education teacher in Resource and Inclusions settings.

Examples of the writing lessons I have taught include a variety of narratives, creative writing strategies, developing college entrance essays, and structuring resumes with cover letters. My teaching background includes work with students with ASD, ADHD, and Emotional Disturbance as well as Dyslexia.

If you are looking for someone to proofread and offer suggestions, I am able to do this as well.

I look forward to working with you!

Very patient and knowledgeable tutor

Jessica taught ELA to my daughter. My daughter loved her. She is extremely patient with kids and very knowledgeable. She is also very flexible. I would recommend Jessica to anyone in need of a good ELA tutor.

Sweet and detailed

My son has been working with Jessica to review grammar in his essays. She guides him to find his mistakes, and reviews with his the grammatical rules to support the corrections he needs to make.
