Hello, I'm Lisa W., and it's a pleasure to connect with you! With a unique blend of experiences and qualifications, I'm excited to empower students from all walks of life. My background includes teaching upper elementary and middle school English, where I've honed my skills in teaching all aspects of ELA, from vocabulary and writing to grammar and literary analysis. Holding both a bachelor's degree from UW-Madison and a master's degree in education, I bring a comprehensive understanding of educational best practices to my tutoring sessions.
Beyond the classroom, I'm also the founder of a company that provides movement products, such as wobble stools and standing desks, to schools—a venture born from my dedication to creating inclusive and dynamic learning environments. As a parent to a child with Down syndrome, I bring firsthand knowledge and empathy for individuals with disabilities, enriching my ability to connect with diverse student populations.
My tutoring approach is rooted in mindfulness and student-centered learning, emphasizing holistic development alongside academic achievement. I'm committed to equipping students with organizational skills, time management strategies, and goal-setting techniques to foster long-term success. Above all, I'm deeply passionate about education and dedicated to helping students realize their full potential.
