Bio
Hello! My name is Allison Key and I am a tutor with Stride. I chose to become a tutor because I love to see when students have the "light bulb" moments and grow their knowledge. I am married to my husband, Luke, and together we have a Mini Labradoodle, Blueberry. In my spare time, I love to travel, play games, and do escape rooms. My philosophy is that learning should be fun and engaging. When you come into my classroom, you will find that I love to play games, use hands-on activities, and make learning fun and interactive. I believe that every student learns in a unique way. I always begin teaching by learning about my student and how they learn and then creating lessons to fit their needs. My goals with tutoring are to instill confidence in my students in reading and/or math. I want to make students to have success and meet his/her goals academically and socially. My number one goal is student growth and academic excellence.
