"Hi! I am a recently retired teacher of 35 years! During that time, I taught 1st, 2nd, and 4th grades, but mostly 2nd. I love all age levels, as they each have their own endearing qualities. I already miss those eager faces and would love to help a first-through-fourth-grader having difficulties. My greatest reward has always been seeing the "light" go on, when a child finally "gets" the concept being taught. I understand frustration and am experienced at helping children work through it, while celebrating each milestone, however small. As I always told my classes, we each have our strengths AND we each have our weaknesses, and that applies to adults, as well as children. (They DELIGHT in hearing that adults have problems, too!!)

I would love to tutor your child in any subject and look forward to meeting and working with you. Together, we can make all the difference in the world!" less...
