Kali: Montgomery County tutor
Certified Tutor
As a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a degree in early childhood education, I am deeply passionate about helping students because I believe that every learner deserves the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. The profound impact of education inspires me to cultivate a supportive and engaging learning environment. My background in early childhood education equips me to establish meaningful connections with students, ensuring they feel valued and empowered in their learning journey.
I have gained valuable experience working with students as a head teacher in 3rd grade for over three years, where I developed interactive lesson plans that catered to diverse learning styles. Additionally, my journey into remote education introduced me to innovative virtual teaching platforms, allowing me to engage students effectively in an online setting. These experiences reinforced my dedication to providing personalized learning opportunities that inspire curiosity and a love for learning.
I hold certifications in Wisconsin for birth to 3rd grade and previously held certifications in North Carolina for Kindergarten to 6th grade. As I transition into online tutoring, I am excited to leverage my teaching background to support students in subjects like reading, writing, and, math. I particularly enjoy tutoring math because it challenges students to think critically and problem-solve, which I find incredibly rewarding. Witnessing their confidence grow as they develop essential math skills is truly fulfilling.
My teaching philosophy centers around equity and opportunity, ensuring that each student receives tailored support to meet their unique needs. I adopt a student-centered tutoring style that emphasizes collaboration, encouragement, and adaptive teaching methods. I strive to create a positive atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions and expressing their thoughts.
My commitment to education and my enthusiasm for tutoring inspire me to make a meaningful difference in the lives of my students. I look forward to helping them achieve their goals and cultivate a lifelong love of learning.
