Coolest Math English Tutor

Hired by 1 family in your neighborhood

Greetings, My name is James , and I am writing to make known my interest in tutoring students. I am a 24 year veteran math teacher and instructional coach. I have taught middle and high school math, and I hold a level II PA certification in mathematics, grades 7-12. I am also experienced with online learning platforms. As aneducator, I bring a unique combination of content knowledge, compassion, pedagogical expertise, humor, and a love of teaching. I understand that education is based on building trusting relationships with students and families. My gift is an ability to meet students where they are; not just academically, but where they are regarding their attitudes toward math, and building motivation. It is my objective to help students improve not only in math achievement, but to find joy in the pursuit of excellence. Give thanks for your consideration,...

"My daughter was really struggling academically in her senior year of high school and we were worried that she may not pass. Her school suggested additional tutoring and connected us with Mr. James W. From the first day that he worked with my daughter, we both had ahuge sense of relief. He not only helped her with staying focused and organized but offered instruction with friendliness, patience, and expertise in what he was teaching. Because of Mr. W's professionalism and pleasant demeanor, we were always happy to welcome him into our home. And when the pandemic came along to shake up everyone's routine, Mr. W had no trouble making himself available virtually. I am happy to report that my daughter successfully graduated high school in 2020 and strongly believe that without the help that Mr. W. was able to provide, the outcome would likely have been much different. Thank you for all of your help! ~Amy H, Parent...

"Sarah is an amazing person and teacher. We hired her to do a pre-K learning pod for the school year and have been blown away at her dedication, organization, and teaching abilities. The children in our pod have thrived and blossomed under her instruction and care,which is no easy task during a year of COVID uncertainty. She is creative, caring, attentive and communicative- both with the children and parents. Her classroom management skills are superior to any I have seen and her lessons are challenging but supportive of the unique learning abilities for each child. My child has grown and learned so much from Sarah and we feel truly blessed to have spent the last year in this situation. The children love and adore her, which speaks volumes. We would be continuing with her if it weren't for our children entering kindergarten this fall. DO NOT hesitate to hire Sarah for teaching or childcare. You will not be disappointed! Thank you for everything, Sarah!...
