Bio

Hello there. My name is Cheryl Irvin. I am a mom of two, a wife of a firefighter, and I love to share learning with students. I believe students can learn through guidance and inquiry. We can enjoy the challenges of learning together. I help students to lean into the challenges with support from information and other resources. Whether the goals are for the big test, an assignment, or to support skill building in a subject, I can guide students to success in their goals. I will guide students to find the answers they seek and help them feel confident with their skills. I use individualized interests to help students to realize the real-world application of learning in school. I adjust learning and challenges to the student's needs. I know how to make learning happen through focus and engagement. I have experience in tutoring all content areas with students from the ages of 4-24. I am comfortable supporting students in multiple subjects and topics.
