About Jerusha

Empowering students to reach their full potential is at the heart of my teaching practice. With three years of experience supporting elementary and middle school learners in Math, English, and test preparation, I focus on building critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I identify your unique learning style by actively listening and observing how you interact with new material. When concepts become challenging, I break them down into manageable steps to build your momentum and confidence. I believe open communication with both students and parents is essential for setting clear expectations and achieving the best outcomes. Witnessing that "aha!" moment when a difficult topic finally clicks is the most rewarding part of my work. I am comfortable working with pets and am happy to meet you at your home, school, or a local library to begin our journey together.
