Hello! Thank you for taking a moment to read my bio. First, a confession. I don't just love teaching. It's WHO I AM. As a child I'd line up my stuffed animals on the floor and "teach" them letters and numbers. In high school, I'd help other students. Throughout my 30+ year professional career, I've been called on multiple times to teach and train. I have been a tutor on Wyzant's platform since 2013. Certified in 16 subjects,12 of which are Language Arts based. Teaching English ...

English is my second language. Paulla is an excellent, smart and very supportive tutor. She is very good at explaining grammar and spelling. If you are looking for a tutor who can help you with your English skills, I definitely recommend Paulla!!

Paulla pays a lot of attention to my mistakes in ACT English practice exams or just in general. After our meetings I felt more sure of myself than I was before. Much THANKS to her. I'm sure Paulla's help will give you the best result on the ACT exam!! Thank you, Paulla!

I have a daughter who can be sometimes shy to strangers but Paulla was able to reach my daughter and my daughter actually enjoys Paulla's visits. She is extremely patient and knowledgeable with her understanding math. Paulla is reaching my daughter and helping her to understand math where others have failed. Thanks Paulla!!

She is a wonderful Teacher. Every time she surprises me. She always brings new learning materials. I am so lucky. Thank God I found her. Thank you.

I'm glad Paulla is on board to help my daughter with her Math. My daughter was diagnosed with PDD (Pervasive Developmental Delay)as well as anxiety. She is a very normal-bright girl, just took a little longer in hitting certain "Milestones." Paulla is very patient with her, and my daughter likes her a lot. It's great to have Paulla as part of her support team. Thanks.

English is my second language and Paulla really helped me to get into it. Our lessons lasted six months and unfortunately we have to terminate our learning because I'm relocating to another state. All lessons were very flexible and customized: we never got stuck with some predefined plan, but instead Paulla was always ready to explain me everything that is not obvious in English and we were free to deviate from the general line and spend time on exploring something interesting - some particular language features or some facts from the American culture or history or whatever else.
