Personal Description:

Hello! My Name is Leah and I have been teaching for 9 years. I graduated with an undergraduate degree in English and Psychology and went on to do my graduate degree in Elementary education. For the past 9 years I have taught grades K-6. I have specialised in Early Literacy Support where I support students who need help in reading and phonics. I also have many math courses that I have taken each year to help enhance my students with whole brain mental strategies. I am a firm believer in making learning fun and providing students with the tools they need succeed.

Tutoring Experience:

9 Years teaching in the school system and currently still teaching.
Tutored off and on for 3 years

Tutoring Approach:

My goal is to create a comfortable learning environment where my students feel validated, encouraged and confident in their learning and successes. In the beginning we will get to know each other. Figure out what he/she is struggling with and HOW my student learns. From there I will develop lessons to cater to their learning needs.
