Carolyn: Stamford tutor
Certified Tutor
I received my bachelor's degree from Texas A&M, San Antonio in Early Childhood-6th grade Education, as a generalist and an Early Childhood-12th ESL certification endorsement. Later I earned a certification in Special Education for Early Childhood-12th grade as well as ELA/Social studies for grades 4-8. As a tutor in college, I served adults who were continuing their education and learning English as a Second Language, (ESL). I also have my M.Ed. from Our Lady of the Lake University as a Reading Specialist. On my journey through academia, I gained classroom teaching experience in areas ranging from, early childhood, special education, and ESL. Now I work as an educational leader for the special education department of an urban school district in the daytime. I can genuinely say I love teaching people of ALL ages. I have high expectations for my students so they can meet their maximum potential. I am particularly fond of tutoring elementary Reading and Math, but I also enjoy tutoring middle school Language Arts and Social Studies. I am also hoping to help students prepare for their state tests. I have experience in targeted interventions to improve grade-level skills. In my spare time, I enjoy my family, my cats, my dog, and my turtle. If I can squeeze in a craft project here and there, I also enjoy this.
