"Hello! I'm Kristen, a Summa Cum Laude graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) and a minor in TESOL. I have over 3,500 hours of tutoring experience and have supported students from diverse backgrounds and age groups in a variety of subjects. My specialization is in high school math, including Algebra, but I have extensive experience working with math at all levels from Kindergarten through 12th grade. I have also been a part of teaching internships and have over 300 hours of in-classroom teaching experience, which includes student teaching and creating customized learning plans.

I’m familiar with Singapore Math and have successfully helped homeschooling families implement and navigate this curriculum. Whether you're seeking support for traditional schooling or a more personalized homeschool approach, I’m confident in my ability to adapt to different learning styles and educational needs. Additionally, I tutor reading, writing, and science, offering comprehensive support across a range of subjects for all ages and grades.

My passion for education extends beyond math. I’ve studied French for five years, reaching a B2 proficiency level, and worked as a college French tutor. I’ve also taught English in international settings, including a 135-hour TEFL internship teaching grades 1-6 in China and volunteering at English camps in Poland. These experiences have given me a unique insight into teaching language and other subjects with patience, creativity, and cultural awareness.

I believe in celebrating every success, no matter how small, and strive to create a positive, encouraging learning environment. I’m excited to support students on their academic journey, helping them build confidence and achieve their goals. If you’re interested in lessons or have any questions, feel free to reach out. Please note that I require a 24-hour notice for cancellations. Let’s work together to make learning engaging and rewarding!" less...
