Ms. Krystal Tutors

Krystal H.

I have a strong passion for helping students build confidence and achieving academic success through engaging individualized instruction. I graduated with honors from Western Governor University with a bachelors degree in early elementary education and have gained valuable experience working with students in a variety of educational settings. My background has provided me with a solid foundation and evidence based teaching practices, differentiation instruction, and creating supportive learning environment that meet the unique and needs of every learner.
For the past two years, I have worked as a paraeducator at Selkirk School District, where I support students in kindergarten through 12th grade. In this role, I provide one-on-one and small group instruction, assist with classroom learning, reinforce academic concepts, and help students develop the confidence and skills needed to succeed. Prior to my current position. I volunteered at KinderCare for five years, where I worked closely with young learners to promote early literacy, social emotional development, and school readiness. I have also provided private tutoring tailored lessons to each students individual learning style and academic goals.
My teaching philosophy centers on creating a positive, encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, taking risk, and celebrating their progress. I use a combination of hands-on learning, interactive activities, explicit instruction, and positive reinforcement to make learning both meaningful and enjoyable. Whether I am working one-on-one, in a small group, or within classroom settings, my goal is to help every student develop confidence, skills, and love of learning that will support their success both inside and outside the classroom.
