Are you looking for a tutor who is a veteran in teaching Elementary school, Reading, Phonics, and Vocabulary? someone who will use your child's strengths to build up their weaknesses? someone who will build lessons focused exclusively on them, not one size fits all? Look no further.
I am a well-rounded teacher with 20+ years of teaching. I have taught kindergarten through fourth grade so am knowledgeable in all of the elementary school subjects. I have designed individual curriculums for my students based exclusively on their needs and strengths.
I have also tutored for Minnesota Reading Corps for 6 years teaching students strategies to improve their letter/sound correspondence, blending, segmenting, rhyming, comprehension, vocabulary, and accuracy. All of my students were reading at or above grade level by the end of the school year.
