Bio
My name is Sydney and I love to see students grow! I love seeing students make progress and it brings me great joy to see their faces light up when they get it. Getting to know my students is crucial, so we can form a good relationship and build upon that foundation. Identifying goals and planning steps to reach them is important to me to make sure we're working in the right direction. I also try to keep student engagement high by teaching lessons that are interactive, student-centered, and integrate student's personal interests. I'd love to work with you to help your child achieve their goals!
Teacher Specialization
My favorite students to teach are elementary students! I have a degree in Elementary Education and I taught 1st grade for four years. During this time, I provided full classroom instruction in reading, math, social studies, and science. I have virtually tutored students in the K-5 range in reading, math, science, and social studies for two years. While I really love it all, my personal favorite is teaching young students how to read. I'm trained in Science of Reading, so I have knowledge and experience in implementing new research in teaching kids how to read. I taught Tier 3 reading and math intervention groups to catch students back up to grade level. I have experience working with students that have ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and giftedness. I also have an EL endorsement, so if your student is multilingual and knows more than one language, we will be a great fit!
