Tutor in Groton, Connecticut

I'm an
Individual
A career classroom instructor/tutor with 35 yrs experience in grades K-12, college level courses, and Adult Education. I have a current teaching license with the state of CT, and a Masters Degree in Reading Recovery from the University of Connecticut. I am a former Sylvan Learning teacher having tutored Math, Reading, and Writing. My private tutoring experiences have included lessons in Arithmetic, Mathematics, Algebra I & II, and Geometry. My career has spanned both public and private schools in Ct, as well as 3 years within a private school in Ecuador, South America teaching students from around the world. The last private school I taught in was the Wildwood Christian School located in Norwich, Ct. Over a 27 year span, I worked with students in PrK - Gr. 8. Early on, I was asked to become the Head Teacher which is similar to a Vice-Principal. Wildwood often would have children enrolled who weren't helped within their public school. We incorporated them within our classrooms, and without any aides, worked very hard to encourage growth socially, academically, and to instill proper in-class behavior. They would bloom and grow due to the love, care, and respect they were shown. Often our classes had a wide range of learning abilities mixed within one group. Thus, I am very experienced in teaching to the needs of specific children. Which means, I have experience in catering lessons to match your child's learning style and pace. Do they learn best through auditory, sensory, or visual instruction? Reading and math are the keys to success in the society we now live in. If you are interested in talking with me to see how I can help your family, please leave an email address where you can be contacted. I look forward to serving your family soon. Truly yours, Valerie
