I have been working with Varsity Tutors for over six months and have enjoyed working with children 2nd - 5th grade. I enjoy tutoring Math and Reading. I have figured out a way to combine reading and math by introducing passages or readings that involve word problems. I like to make learning fun and getting to know each child's uniqueness. I have been teaching for over 30 years. I earned by BS degree in Physical Fitness and my Elementary Certification (UPK - 6th) from SUNY Cortland. I have also earned by Masters degree in Curriculum Studies. I enjoy combining curriculums to fit the child's needs. I teach all areas of Math and Reading focusing on reading comprehension, sight words, vocabulary, reading fluency, spellings, and context clues and decoding. Basically all areas of reading. Tutoring has become a hobby for me.
