"Hello! My name is Mrs. M. I have been volunteering, tutoring, and teaching for since 2005. I currently tutor elementary students in all subjects, and I teach Chinese (ESOL) students online through VIPKid. I love teaching, and watching my students' grades, knowledge, and confidence grow. The "ah-ha" moments are the absolute best. I enjoy the time spent with my students, and have the patience, knowledge, understanding, and resources to help them learn in their own individual ways. We will have fun learning with pictures, props, changing voices, manipulatives and exercises. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, scuba diving, and buying more education paraphernalia to ensure that I have something I can use to meet an individual's learning needs. The younger students (and the older ones too) will get to meet my puppets. These friendly characters help provide a comfortable and fun atmosphere while giving the students visuals when necessary. I look forward to working with you and getting to know you. Let's master those skills together!! See you soon!

Within 3 months, their scores jumped to approaching - 3rd grade levels. The entire class met or exceeded their annual progress goals. This was also accomplished in 2 other classrooms (1st & 3rd).
