Talented Independent Tutor (Seattle, WA)

3206 Conkling Place West Seattle, WA

As a tutor I use positive reinforcement, honor the child's individual learning style and needs, and engage as a mentor and firm learning coach. With my many years of experience as an educator, I call out a child's best work and hold him or her accountable with compassion. I like to employ creative problem solving and vary learning tools, and have developed a strong ability to keep my sense of humor and patience intact through challenges. I have fifteen years of experience supporting young people in an educational role.
