"With the Common Core Standards, does your child have the skills to communicate and validate his answers in many different ways? Students DO learn in multiple ways. It is my job to help your child grasp concepts he may not "get" in the classroom.

I have extensive elementary school teaching experience since 1998 (1st-6th). I hold a master's in educational technology from SDSU, a master's in reading education from National University, and a BA in English and communications from Holy Names University. My previous work with children includes teaching special education classes, GED with Job Corps youth, and YMCA day camps. Currently, I teach 6th grade at a technology-based elementary school.

My goals for your child:

--Work to merge my strategies and experience with your child's learning intelligence.

--Determine what obstacles hinder his/her learning.

--Work for reasonable goals to improve grades, while building up his self-confidence!

Does your child use any of these language or math curricula: Wonders!, Benchmark Universe, Achieve3000, GoMath, or Eureka? If so, I can help.

No child wants to feel abandoned in the classroom. Sadly, this often happens. Let's change that!" less...
