I am a home-school mom in my 9th year of homeschooling. I home-schooled my own 4 kids, 2 have graduated and 2 are still in school here at home. I have also home-schooled other children whose parent wasn't able to home-school them, but wanted them home-schooled. I also tutored other children after school, providing homework help, test prep, and remedial reading and math. I have 2 special needs children of my own, plus I have home-schooled another boy that has autism. I use a hands on approach to learning. I try to make whatever subject we are working on come alive. I believe children will learn and retain more if they use all of their senses when working on a subject. I try to make learning fun and exciting so that the child looks forward to learning instead of dreading it. I am able to test for different learning styles in the children I teach. This allows me to teach them in the best, most effective way. I utilize many different mediums to engage a child in the subject we are working on. We use flash cards, chalk boards, write on wipe off boards, finger paint, manipulatives, shaving cream, play dough, plastic shapes, numbers and letters, anything that will help the child grasp the concepts being learned.
I am willing to tutor or home-school any child up through grade 8. High school level will depend on subject. I am willing to tutor a high school student in history, English, Biology, anatomy, and other basic subjects. I especially love assisting on term papers, essays or reports. I am available all day everyday. Rates vary depending on length of time spent with child and amount of prep work needed. If you have any questions or would like more information, I would love to hear from you.
