My Tutoring Approach As a tutor, I focus on building both academic skills and student confidence. My method combines structured lesson planning with emotional intelligence, creating a space where students feel supported and motivated to learn. Teaching Methods & Techniques I use a student-centered approach that includes: Diagnostic assessments to identify strengths and areas for growth. Scaffolded reading and writing activities tailored to individual needs. Interactive discussions and guided practice to reinforce concepts. SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) strategies to boost confidence and focus. A standard 45-60 minute session might include: 1. Warm-up (5-10 min): Quick reading or writing prompt 2. Skill Focus (25-30 min): Main lesson based on ELA standards (e.g., comprehension, grammar, structure) 3. Application (10-15 min): Practice activity or creative writing task 4. Review & Reflect (5-10 min): Recap key takeaways and set goals What Sets Me Apart I bring experience from the classroom, working directly with sixth-grade students at Meridian PCS through City Year. My strengths lie in building meaningful student relationships, adapting to different learning styles, and blending academics with emotional support. I'm patient, positive, and proactive. My tutoring is ideal for: Middle school students (grades 5–8) Learners needing help with reading comprehension, writing skills, or homework support. Students who benefit from consistent encouragement and structure. Families seeking a tutor who can also support executive functioning and behavior management.

Abby has been an incredible asset to City year the past year, forming strong relationships with students and encouraging their success everyday. She is a friendly and hardworking person who you can always rely on. As her sister, I have seen her truly change children's lives, and she wasn't even their teacher, she was a class resource for behavior. With this being said, she went above and beyond her position to help students learn and she creates a friendly and welcoming environment everywhere she goes.
