About Marcy
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello. I have been an educator for over 25 years, including work with Social and Emotional learning. I am a certified teacher through the CT State Board of Education. I love tutoring in particular. My top goals when tutoring are getting to know my students, developing trusting relationships with them, and creating a fun, positive environment where they are comfortable taking risks. Ultimately, I want my students to succeed, gain confidence, feel proud, and get to know themselves better as learners. My approach is student centered, hands on when possible, and interactive. When a student finds a concept difficult to grasp, coming up with an alternate way of presenting the material is an exciting challenge for me. I'm a dedicated, patient and caring educator, enthusiastic collaborator, and excellent communicator with children and adults alike. I look forward to hearing from you to discuss how I can work with you and your student(s).
Most recent review
We can’t say enough good things about Marcy who is one of the best tutors we have hired in recent years. Because of her many years of experience in education, Marcy is highly qualified and knows all the ins and outs of connecting with students. At the very first session with our son Michael, Marcy was very warm and fun and she immediately put him at ease so he could focus and get down to work. During the sessions, Marcy was patient and allowed time for our son to think and respond to her questions. Marcy has exceptional skills for explaining things and breaking them down into simpler concepts that are easy to digest. Our son always looked forward to working with her because she has a great knack for making the work interesting. We would highly recommend Marcy.
