About Tristan

Experience: 3 yrs

Learning is a journey, and I'm passionate about guiding students toward their academic goals. With 9 years of experience, I hold a college degree in psychology with an emphasis in child development, that allows me to create an engaging, supportive, and patient learning environment. I believe every student has unique potential, and I tailor my teaching methods to suit individual learning styles by actively listening and observing how they interact with new material. I keep students motivated by connecting challenging topics to real-world examples and celebrating small successes. Communication is essential, so I provide regular updates to parents to foster a collaborative environment. I am comfortable tutoring online or at a coffee shop or library and can assist with Math, English, Art, and Dance for elementary school students. I also hold certifications in CPR and First Aid. I would love to help your student discover a love for learning!

Tristan has been tutoring both of my children for the past 3 years and I honestly can’t say enough good things about her. Thanks to her incredible teaching, both kids have skipped an entire grade! My son is 6 and already reading at a level far beyond his age—he reads entry-level books fluently, every parking sign, directional sign, pamphlet, menu, and piece of mail that comes into our house. He’s so motivated and genuinely loves learning now. My 5-year-old daughter is reading and spelling small words, three-letter words, sight words, and more. They both adore school, which is a complete 180 from where we started. Tristan’s degrees in Psychology and Childhood Development truly shine through in everything she does. She has an amazing gift for figuring out exactly how each child learns best. If one approach isn’t clicking, she instantly switches to a new method that fits their unique learning style. She’s endlessly patient, calm, extremely intelligent, and somehow makes every lesson fun. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her. If your child is struggling in school (or even if they’re doing okay and you just want them to soar), I would recommend Tristan without the slightest hesitation. I can almost guarantee she’ll turn things around and get them excited about learning again. She’s simply the best!
