I am a National Board Certified Teacher. I am certified to teach kindergarten through 8th grade. I have experience teaching throughout these grade levels as well as working with individual and small group tutoring sessions. Tutoring gives me the opportunity to work individually with various types of students. As an educator, I know that different students have different learning styles and learning needs. Sometimes it is very difficult for students to learn everything in a larger group during the regular school year. The tutoring atmosphere allows the student to relax, work on the specific skills, and take that skill to mastery. I like teaching reading focusing on fluency, grammar, and comprehension. I like to teach math through a problem solver's eye. I like to use games, technology, puzzles, and teacher/student made activities. I like to use active learning so that the student can participate in real life, real time learning before we work on the skill on paper.

The exciting part of the process comes when I can accurately match the learning style, the instructional materials and tools, and the interests of the student to the needs of that particular student. I have taught a variety of grade levels and I am very knowledgeable about the bench mark skills or each grade level. Students may become discouraged when learning becomes difficult. It is very important for me to understand the small pieces of a skill that will help the student to be able to work on a skill with the confidence that learning can happen. Learning is an adventure in every way!

Wow, Love her!

She is very kind and breaks it down for him she has only worked with my son for 2 sessions. He has learned so much already and he looks forward to his next lesson. Can’t wait to see his progress over time with her help.

Katrina, 2 lessons with Cynthia

AMAZING!!!!!

She was exactly what my little one needed. As soon as the session was finished, my little one asked when she could meet with her again. She is patient, supportive and really knows her stuff.

K, 1 lesson with Cynthia

Amazing

My son absolutely enjoyed himself and said he actually wants to go back and learn. I am looking forward to working with her and be able to get my child where he need to be.

Rosalind, 7 lessons with Cynthia

Excellent tutor

Cynthia is teaching our nephew with math and he's so excited working with her. He has a problem following in class because he says the teacher rushes through the lesson; however he said he really understands when working with Ms. Hicks because she takes her time...

Theresa, 5 lessons with Cynthia

great outstanding teacher

Mrs.Hicks is the best teacher hands down! My child loves her! We have recommended her to all of our friends and family!

Laquita, 22 lessons with Cynthia

knowledgeable and patient

Ms. Cynthia is working with my son and for the first time, he said I like working with her. I was surprised because all he talk about is how "learning is not his thing, I hate school." I was overwhelmed with joy.

Charlotte, 7 lessons with Cynthia

Knowledgeable and Patient

Ms. Cynthia has been working with our child for 3 weeks now, 2 hours each session and she has been wonderful! She came in conducted an initial assessment, the next lesson she worked with him to set goals and helped him with strategies to accomplish those goals. I can already see the improvement in his reading and comprehension.

Joy, 3 lessons with Cynthia

Cynthia is doing a great job with our son. He is very receptive to her instruction, and she knows how to keep him focused and on task. She is very experienced in what she does, and she does it very well.

Best tutor ever!!!!!

My son did not like school work and cried the first few times he went to tutoring. Mrs. H was fantastic, she engaged him with a variety of activities, flashcards and games. She encouraged him and gave positive praise. By the end of the school year he LOVED tutoring, was eager to learn, wanted to learn and was reading at the top of his grade level. Mrs. H saved my baby mind and changed his attitude towards learning, we love her. If you want the EXCELLENCE she is it.
