Saludos! I am Mrs. King, and I have dedicated my career to helping students discover their full potential. With over a decade of experience teaching in elementary and middle school classrooms in Wisconsin and abroad, I understand that every student learns differently. My approach is patient, encouraging, and tailored to each individual's unique learning style and pace.

I hold teaching certifications in Elementary Education, Spanish Education, and English Education. My tutoring experiences encompass a wide range of students from preschool through adult. Back in my high school years, I earned significant amounts of college credit through Advanced Placement Math, Science, Social Studies, and Reading courses, as well as graduating Valedictorian of my cohort. Education truly is my passion. I am currently based in Germantown, WI, and offer in-person (public meet up or at my location) and virtual sessions.

My goal is not just to help students complete assignments, but to build their confidence and foster a love of learning that will serve them throughout their lives. I look forward to working with you!

Elementary Math

Elementary Math

With over a decade of teaching experience, I have had the opportunity to see which strategies work best to engage and grow a diverse range of learners! I use a well-backed and researched Building Fact Fluency approach to helping students not only learn their +/-/x?% fluently, but also be able to apply these strategies to larger problems and concepts more flexibly as their curriculum grows in rigor. I have undergone additional Building Thinking Classrooms professional development to help students develop universal problem-solving strategies and critical thinking skills that help them to build skills and stamina as mathematicians. I am looking forward to helping your child grow and enhance these skills!
English

English

I am a licensed English educator with over a decade of practical teaching and tutoring experience. I took a wide selection of collegiate courses on Reading, Writing, Shakespeare, Classics, and Poetry in order to complete my degree. As a licensed Spanish teacher, as well, I am well equipped to help language learners (or students struggling to break down the rules of English) to improve their language! My approach is patient, individualized, and strengths-based.

One of my teaching licenses specifically addresses English education/ELA. I have a particular passion for developing students' interest in and enjoyment of all forms of writing. In essay writing, this includes teaching students the "formula" for solid essay formatting.
Executive Functioning

Executive Functioning

As an educator with 10+ years of experience working with children with a wide range of executive functioning needs, I am happy to help your child to grow in any of the following key EF skills: Organization, Task Initiation, Planning/Prioritizing, Impulse Control, Emotional Control, Self-Regulation/Self-Monitoring, Flexible Thinking, and Working Memory. Getting out the door to school in the morning a battle each day? I also am willing to work with/tutor parents looking for ideas and systems to prevent some headaches at home!

One of my teaching licenses specifically addresses English education/ELA. In college, I took courses specific to techniques for fiction and creative writing. I actively teach fiction writing in each year, and was on a curriculum team at my school to evaluate and learn more about current best practices for teaching writing. I have a particular passion for developing students' interest in and enjoyment of all forms of writing.
Flute

Flute

Certified educator who enjoys flute as a hobby! I played flute up to the collegiate level, and enjoy helping students to learn more about the instrument. Experience tutoring students on the flute 1:1.
Reading

Reading

With over a decade of teaching and tutoring experience, my approach to reading instruction involves engaging my students with a variety of rich, high-interest texts! I believe in directly and explicitly addressing phonics gaps as needed, explicitly teaching ways to improve your child's fluency, and systematically tackling literal and inferential comprehension of both fiction and nonfiction literature. Does you child currently have a personalized reading plan, intervention, or specific goals the need a boost? Let's work together to make some gains!
Social Studies

Social Studies

I am a licensed educator with over a decade of experience teaching and tutoring. In addition to being eligible for and achieving great marks in AP Social Studies in high school, I also took college courses in several domains of Social Studies.

Spanish

Licensed Spanish Educator, studied abroad in Costa Rica at La Universidad de San Jose. Experience teaching 6-8 grade Spanish and afterschool programs for elementary students. Experience tutoring adults and high school students one on one.
Special Needs

Special Needs

With over a decade of experience in education, I have lots first-hand experience working with the families, special education case managers, and other stakeholders to maximize the learning of students with special needs. College courses that I have taken include Education in a Diverse Society, Educational Psychology, and Educating the Exceptional Learner. I have also studied a variety of professional development literature on exceptional learners, including: Smart but Scattered, Selective Mutism: An Assessment and Intervention Guide, The Out-of-Sync Child, and various others. My teaching approach begins with learning the unique strengths and interests of each individual student, and using those strengths and interests to leverage high levels of learning.
Vocabulary

Vocabulary

Many students- and adults!- who struggle with vocabulary find that rote memorization of vocabulary lists simply does not work for them. By systematically tackling the common morphological affixes and roots that govern the majority of our vocabulary, comparatively fast and lasting gains can be made! I have been trained in several vocabulary curricula, including Morpheme Magic and World Love. If your child is suffering from a vocabulary deficit, or simply looking for a boost, let's plan together!
Writing

Writing

In addition to maintaining an English Education license for over a decade, I have experience in collegiate level writing courses, obtained many of my higher level education scholarships through exemplary professional writing, and was a journalist for my college newspaper. One of my true passions is helping others to not only enjoy writing, but to also use their natural skills to improve their writing capabilities.
