Tutors by Grade in Woodstock

Hello, Pandemic Parents/Teachers/Workers/Do-it-allers! As a certified elementary level educator (grades Pre-K to sixth) who has earned the title of "Highly Qualified" by every state I've taught in -- education is my passion and it is the core of my being. I'm a Teach for America alumni -- a program with admittance levels that match Harvard. In my time with Teach for America, I was sent to the most challenging schools in the nation to promote positive change in academics and culture. To provide a snapshot of my classroom: - nominated as runner up for teacher of the year three years in a row - data showed 2. 8 years of reading growth among students in 8 months - highest math scores in 10 years at my middle school placement - English Language Arts Chair for the school - Chosen to represent my schools for media exposure on multiple occasions Above all else, I believe results come from a connection between parent, student, and teacher. We are a team -- let's have fun and grow!

My name is Karen, and I hold an Early Childhood Education degree. I worked as a special education aide for one year in a blended seventh/eighth/ninth grade class. Once my children were born, I remained home and homeschooled my children through high school; the youngest is now entering college this fall. For the past three years, I have been teaching English online in China to students who range from three to 12 years of age. I would be happy to help meet the needs of your young student.
