Tutoring from the Heart



   
  Welcome to Tutoring from the Heart, a business I created in my home. I am happy to serve the home school, public school and private school communities.  I provide homework help, enrichment, remediation and practice through one-on-one tutoring.  I also consult with parents about instructional strategies, testing, time management and ideas for implementing lessons.  Email me today for more information.

Your child deserves individualized attention from a qualified and experienced teacher who cares.  Tutoring from the Heart is just what the name suggests.    I am an enthusiastic and motivated teacher who has not lost sight of the uniqueness of every child and the potential that they possess.

 

At Tutoring from the Heart, I recognize the complexities of learning, socialization and family life. Your child’s life is a complicated and intricate series of events, one not isolated from another.   I believe in educating the WHOLE child in a non-threatening, comfortable environment where one can truly meet his or her maximum potential.
