Elementary learners thrive when subjects connect — when a math lesson involves measuring art supplies, or a reading exercise ties into a science observation. Mimi built her career around this kind of integrated learning, first as an arts educator and then through her master's program at Harvard, whe...

Being the oldest of five kids means Nathan has been explaining math problems, reading stories aloud, and answering endless 'why' questions for most of his life. He channels that patience into elementary sessions that cover foundational reading, writing, and arithmetic — building the kind of curiosit...

Younger learners need someone who can make math facts and early science concepts click without feeling like a chore. Allan teaches across elementary math and science, connecting topics like place value, basic fractions, and the life cycle of plants to hands-on examples that keep curiosity alive. His...

Younger learners need someone who can make a lesson feel like play without losing the substance underneath. Nick's background as a professional actor and musician gives him a natural ability to keep kids engaged through storytelling, voices, and creative exercises while reinforcing core reading, wri...

Elementary learners need someone who can shift gears in a single session — from sounding out multisyllabic words to working through place-value problems to drafting a short paragraph. Sherry's experience as a teacher's aide in a public school classroom and an instructor at literacy organization 826 ...

Mariana covers the full spread of elementary subjects — from early multiplication and fractions to reading comprehension and basic paragraph writing — and adjusts her explanations to match how each child learns. Her background tutoring across math, English, and science means she can spot exactly whe...

Elementary education is what Jessica is training to do professionally at Vanderbilt, which means she understands how young learners develop reading fluency, number sense, and early scientific thinking. She connects lessons to hands-on examples and breaks multi-step problems into manageable pieces — ...

Early learners need structure they don't notice — routines that feel like play while building real reading fluency, handwriting confidence, and number sense. Maya uses a personalize-practice-reward approach developed over seven years of working with young students and their families, adapting each s...

Early math and reading skills shape how a child approaches every subject later on, so getting the fundamentals right matters enormously. Sugi's cognitive science background gives her insight into how young learners actually process new information — she uses that to make concepts like place value, r...

A Northwestern biology degree and medical residency might sound like overkill for elementary school, but Connie uses that depth to make early math and reading genuinely interesting — connecting fractions to recipes or explaining why plants grow toward light. She's patient with younger learners and s...
