Reading, K-Prep. Specializing: Dyslexia, Learning Disabilities

I hold a master’s degree in teaching, been a certified teacher and have enjoyed working with students for over 30 years.

I identify why students are struggling with reading, then teach strategies... Read more


Anna

Specializing in Chem Honors, AP Chemistry, and AP Calculus AB

Students who struggle with high school curricula are typically bright individuals who have excelled in school up until this point, and did not need to fine-tune study skills because learning in earlier grades was intuitive.

Hi! I'm Chrysanthe. I'm a third-year student majoring in Earth Systems B.S. and minoring in Biology at Stanford University. I plan to pursue a PhD in Ecology or Biology post-graduation.
