"Hi, I am retired teacher with 30 plus years in the classroom working with students K-6. I have certification in early childhood and elementary education from Erskine College in Due West, SC. I am certified through 2030. I enjoy tutoring because it's one on one and I can narrow in on specific needs of student. I am working as a sub in Greenville and Spartanburg counties. I work 2-3 long-term sub jobs a year,

I use hands on methods to help students get from concrete understanding to abstract. Teaching math is a process. Math can be learned when student understands the process and logic to determining answers.

I know I am a good tutor because the students are learning and the parents are happy (less stressed)." less...
