Bio
Hello! Thank you for visiting my K12 Tutor profile. I have had the experience of teaching in traditional classrooms as a Special Education teacher, tutoring individuals and small groups online, and also teaching as a 1 to 1 voice and flute instructor. These experiences have gifted me with the joy of teaching students of all ages and different learning styles. I believe that learning is a journey and a partnership between the student and tutor; I meet my students where they are and create mutual goals with them, moving them forward in understanding and mastery of the content which they need to learn. It is important to me that my students develop metacognition, which means they learn how to learn. Throughout our tutoring sessions, it is my goal that you will identify your strengths and how you learn best. I am excited for this chance to tutor online and help you learn and grow in confidence, as you master whatever content with which you are struggling.
Teacher Specialization
