I've taught elementary school (grades 1-6), middle school and ESL classes (children & adults). Currently, I'm also the Curriculum Specialist at the school where I teach full-time. I am seeking a few tutoring students after school or on weekends. I have an outstanding rapport with my students, and will set up a short or long term tutoring plan for your child. I have excellent references for you to call from former students/parents. I welcome you to meet with me prior to hiring me as a tutor. Thank you and I hope to be able to assist you.
