About Liza

I am a certified Reading Recovery Specialist, ESL and Special Education teacher with 14 years of experience. I am currently teaching in DC Public Schools and in my 8th year working with struggling readers in grades K-2. My current position has allowed me to work and collaborate with students from a variety of cultural and linguistic backgrounds. I am proficient in identifying and targeting weak skills of students by conducting accurate pre-assessment and setting up an individualized program for each tutee. My students in the past have shown progress and growth in a teaching and learning environment where mistakes are welcomed and initiative and effort are appreciated and rewarded. I take joy in seeing my students/tutees' engagement and involvement in their own learning, thus paving them the way to become lifelong learners.

Liza began working with my son in early November 2011 until April 2012. My second grade son was off-task, he could not process the basic concepts of arithmetic and subtraction. Liza began tutoring him three times a week in the beginning. She was able to explain the concepts to him; he began to understand how to do the math, count, subtract and ultimately, he reached his grade level. Liza was patient, understanding and knowledgeable. He began to make so much progress that he only required tutoring two times a week. My son began to have problems with reading and literacy. Liza began tutoring him in these subjects, and he also progressed and reached his grade level. I am confident that because of Liza's commitment to tutoring him, and her abilities, my son is ready for third grade. Liza, thanks for all your help and your commitment to achieving your goals with my son. I would recommend Liza to any child who is have academic difficulties. Respectfully, Robin H.
