...mine. It is a pleasure to help children grow and learn every day. Sometimes, in a whole group classroom setting, students can get lost in the chaos of it all, but with tutoring, the focus is solely on one student and their specific needs.

...be successful. I strongly believe in helping students develop a growth mindset, which they can take into any educational experience. I have been teaching in the DC area for 3 years, and understand the demands of the Common Core Standards, PARCC, SAT and other exams. I am familiar with ELA and history content at both the middle and high school level, and I also enjoy teaching and reinforcing basic skills, especially in writing.... I believe in creating authentic curriculum that allows students to tackle real world problems and challenges. I find that students are more engaged and motivated when they are doing rigorous and authentic work, and they often come up with some creative and unique ideas! I believe that all students have the ability to learn and that developing a growth mindset is one of the most important components of education.

Lindsay: PARCC course instructor
I am a passionate educator with a love of learning and teaching! I have three years of teaching experience (grades 1-5) at a technology school. I understand that each individual student learns differently and I have ample experience finding resources and instructional methods to match the needs of each learner. I hold all students to the highest expectations and believe that all children are capable of success.... My philosophy is centered around the core concept of teaching children how to be problem solvers. They need to know how to approach and think about any given problem. It is okay to make mistakes, as they are learning opportunities. Persistence and confidence in oneself as a learner are the key skills to ensure success in life.
