About Ellena

For the past 10 years, I've cultivated a passion for helping students unlock their full potential. With a graduate degree in Special Education and as a certified teacher, I create engaging, supportive, and patient learning environments tailored to each student's unique style. I actively listen and observe how you interact with new material, adapting my teaching with visual aids, hands-on activities, discussions, and practice problems. I specialize in Math, English, Science, Test Preparation, Special Education, and Study Skills for elementary, middle, and high school students. I can help you connect challenging topics to real-world examples, celebrating small successes along the way. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates to ensure everyone is on the same page. My experience includes Individualized Education Programs (IEP) and student accommodation plans (504). Seeing your confidence grow as you master new skills is the most rewarding part of tutoring.
