Kirsten: Homewood tutor

Certified Tutor

As a dedicated educator with I have over two years of experience in both tutoring and classroom teaching. My passion for phonics ignited during my initial tutoring experiences, and it has since blossomed into a commitment to help young readers build confidence and joy in reading. I employ a hands-on, multisensory approach that keeps lessons engaging and accessible, utilizing games and interactive activities to reinforce learning. I take pride in my ability to support struggling readers, evidenced by my success in helping 95% of my kindergarten students achieve grade-level proficiency in reading. Outside of teaching, I enjoy exploring new educational strategies and sharing them with fellow educators, fostering a collaborative environment for both students and teachers.
