Reading Tutors in University Place

I can help your child do simple reading, writing and arithmetic, but, if you want help with algebra or trigonometry or writing essays, you probably need someone else. Hope you have a good sense of humor. I have a college degree but don't plan on using it any time soon!

I've cared for children ages newborn to 11 years old for the past 7 years. I have been a full time Nanny for 2 girls ages 0-3 years old, a Lead teacher of before and after school program, a teacher assistant at a preschool classroom and a Lead teacher of infant/toddler classroom at an EHS program. Currently about to finish Associates Degree in ECE, with an Infant/Toddler Specialization. I love playing outside and music time. Enjoy reading books and feel very comfortable with pets, even horses! I'm hoping to bring along my very easy going 3-month-old boy. - Fluent in English and Spanish -Infant/Toddler Specialization -Short and Initial ECE Certificate. - Negative TB Test - DEL Background check - Child Abuse Prevention training - Active Supervision training - HIV/AIDS training - Food Handlers Card.

I am a licensed teacher and mother of two (a 4 yr old & 4 month old). I am experienced with all ages from 1st grade through 12th. I also nannied an infant for a year, beginning when he was 3 months (I can provide reference for this in addition to teaching references). I worked for a school district this past year as a Spanish teacher, and my husband currently works for a School District. We have a nice, clean, home and we are not smokers nor do we have any pets. I would love to spend the year at home nurturing our little ones just a bit longer before embarking on public daycare. I speak a few languages (Spanish, Italian, and some Albanian) and would love to introduce your child to any of these, if you like. There are many details that I am flexible on (like what to provide for meals, drop-off and pick-up times, etc.) I have a lot of energy, love, and patience. I am best known for making my students feel cared for, respected, and nurtured. I believe that all children are individual, organic beings and should be encouraged to explore and grow through free-play, reading (or being read to), make-believe and costumes, cooking, outdoor exploration, exercise, art, and crafts!

I started working in a daycare out of high school and then transitioned to nannying when I had my first child. I have watched children from three seperate families, ranging in age from 18 months to 13 years. I have watched a total of four children at a time and have prepared meals, conducted study time, clean up, outside/inside play, errands, light housework associated with the children. I remain close with those families still. I am the cub scout leader for my son's pack, and I teach in our church's primary sunday school program.

I began occasional babysitting at the age of 14, 12 years ago. Since then, I have been providing families with exceptional child care. During my time with the child/children, I always ensure that my services are professional yet fun, nurturing yet stimulating. I love challenging children in a sense; to learn more (through reading and or observation, depending on the age), to stay active (I encourage outdoor play), and to share and cooperate. About four years ago, I began nannying full-time for a family with two children (ages 13 months and 4 years old). With the children, I would play games of all sorts, color, draw, foster their imaginations through creative and imaginary play, teach them new words or assist with the alphabet. As for the household as a whole, I also took care of many chores, such as cleaning, vacuuming (occasionally), laundry, dishes, sweeping and mopping and light meal preparation. Although I became very close with the family, I left because my husband is stationed (military) here in Washington and it was time for us to begin our married lives together. If you are seeking a babysitter/nanny that will care for, love and interact full-time with your child, I am your girl! I am genuinely honest, dependable (never calls out and is always on time), well versed with children of all ages, and fun to be around.

I teach calligraphy, cursive writing, which includes teaching fundamental reading and writing in home or on location. Someone who understands visual learners and those who struggle with reading, writing, and drawing. I can help you improve so you can get your wings to fly. Anything is possible if you put your heart into it. I believe with compassion, understanding, and kindness, you can teach anything. You just have to understand others feelings and needs. I am able to do that and in return you'll be able to accomplish a goal that will build your confidence and give some much more than that. This is about you and what you want to do with goals. For me teaching is easy because I've been there right where you are. Read my story on my blog or talk to me in person to get to know me. Let me help you build a wonderful future for yourself or a loved one.

Hi! My name is Ashley and I would love to tutor! I have a lot of experience with individual one on one teaching. I've worked at the YMCA for almost a year and in that time I taught kids how to swim. I have done three private lessons, and have been doing such continuously for almost 5 months. The kids have outgrown their fear of the water, to never wanting to get out of the water. I am lifeguard certified, and am still in high school, so academic tutoring is pretty easy for me. If you have a child who struggles in math, well math is my favorite subject, or English. Do not be afraid to reach me at any point during the day.

I love helping people succeed. I used to work for a leading math and reading tutoring agency, and really enjoyed helping people excel. I use library resources in conjunction with students textbooks to enable them to recall and retain the information that they need to succeed. Learning made fun is learning for life.

I am a National Board Certified teacher. I have been teaching for the past 11 years. The past three years, I have been working as a reading and math specialist for grades kindergarten to 5th grade. This summer, I have decided not to teach summer school so I can plan a fun and educational summer for my two daughters. I would love to have some other children in need of summer care join us. My plan is to have weekly swimming trips to the local pool and trips to the park. I can also tutor/teach the children in my care as to avoid the "summer slide."

I am the eldest of seven children and have experience watching and caring for all ages. I have been a summer nanny several times and thoroughly enjoyed it. I have babysat for as long as I can remember, and have watched more than four kids at a time. I am comfortable running errands, changing diapers, making meals, giving baths, and basically anything you need me to get done. I can do any housework, from cleaning the kitchen or bathroom, to mowing the lawn. I am not allergic to any animals, so I am also okay with caring for pets. I love to teach kids new crafts and read to them. I have lots of experience with music, specifically singing, and enjoy teaching music appreciation to kids of all ages. I also know some of the basics of playing piano. I love to bake and cook with the kids I tend to, and I also love the outdoors.
