With ten years of classroom teaching experience behind me, let me help make this the best possible school year for your child. I am a certified teacher with a Bachelor of Education in the Primary/Junior division. I have a reputation as a fun, creative and caring teacher and I strive to make a genuine and meaningful connection with all my students.
I have taught all ages, from kindergarten to adult learners. I have specialised experience in teaching children who speak English as a Second Language, as well as a background teaching children with a variety of learning difficulties. I also have extensive experience working with children who are identified as Gifted and Talented in a particular area and am happy to provide extension activities. I have taught in Canada, the United Kingdom and South Korea, which gives me a varied background of skills and tools.
I tutor all Primary/Junior subjects including writing, reading, spelling, handwriting, comprehension, math, history and science. Whether your child could use a boost with their times tables or struggles to find the joy in reading, my caring, sincere and fun approach to learning will allow me to connect with your child and ensure success.
Fees and Services
If you are interested in tutoring services, please fill in the contact form and I will respond within twenty-four hours. I will then arrange a brief conversation with you over the phone to discuss your child and tutoring needs. I offer a free 30 minute Meet & Greet session in which I will come and meet your child at your home to get to know them and assess through a few fun activities their level.
It is completely up to you and your child how often tutoring occurs. Some children benefit from a regular once a week slot, while others prefer more often, or less.
I charge $40 per hour to tutor in the west end of Ottawa (a travel fee is charged if you live in another area of the city). I accept payment by e-transfer, cash or cheque.
