Sarah P. - Pittsburgh Tutor or Private Instructor

Profile of Sarah P.

Part-Time, 4 Years of Experience

I am originally from the Pittsburgh area, and I have recently returned from New York City, where I was an inclusion and special education teacher for four years. I received my B.A. from the University of Colorado at Boulder in International Affairs (magna cum laude) and my master's degree in teaching at Pace University in Manhattan. I have left teaching in the classroom to pursue a career in carpentry, but I still enjoy teaching and the excitement of helping students and their families find academic success. Many of my students were able to overcome their academic delays and reach grade-level proficiency through my individualized lessons and high standards for assignments. I have taught a range of subjects, such as: reading, writing, math, social studies, and science. Some of my students had learning disabilities and some were advanced learners, but all were able to improve and accomplish passing state exam scores.
I have taught first, fifth, sixth, seventh, and eight grade. I am confident that I can help your student with any subject and not just get them caught up, but help them shine in the classroom.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I enjoy skiing, snowboarding, tennis, and running. I love to travel and have been to England, Ireland, Italy, and China.
