Beverly: Lakewood tutor

Certified Tutor

Hello! My name is Bev Phillips, and I am passionate about making learning an enjoyable experience for my students. I have over 25 years of teaching experience and hold a Master's in Education from the University of Alabama-Birmingham and a Master's in Geospatial Science from the University of North Alabama. My specialties include ACT prep for all sections, English, math, and Latin, along with a strong background in teaching science and geography. I believe in creating engaging, student-centered lessons that connect academic concepts to real-life applications, helping students see the value in their education. My approach is rooted in my own experiences as a student, where I strive to foster a supportive and interactive learning environment. I find joy in guiding elementary through college students, using creative methods to cater to their unique needs, especially when working with students with dyslexia. I look forward to collaborating with students and inspiring them to become lifelong learners!

Hobbies

I love to garden! Being outside in the sunshine, and sometimes the rain, and digging my hands into the dirt- this is so therapuetic! The added bonus is the beautiful flowers and tasty vegetables I get to enjoy all season long. Gardening is like teaching- we have to tend to both with care.
