"Hi! I’m Olivia, an elementary teacher with over 7 years of classroom experience and a passion for helping children thrive in reading and writing. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education, and I’m currently in the process of renewing my state teaching license. I’ve taught students in public school settings, primarily in kindergarten through 2nd grade.

During my time in the classroom, I designed and delivered instruction aligned with Common Core standards and differentiated lessons to meet the diverse needs of my students. I now bring that same individualized, engaging approach to tutoring. I specialize in: phonics and decoding (K-2), fluency and reading comprehension strategies, narrative and opinion writing, and building writing confidence and structure. My teaching style is warm, patient, and focused on helping children build both skills and self-confidence. I incorporate multi sensory techniques, hands-on learning when appropriate, and scaffolded instruction that supports gradual independence.

I offer flexible scheduling, including daytime and after-school availability, and believe in creating a supportive environment where children feel safe to take risks and grow. Whether your child needs a short-term boost or consistent academic support, I’d love to partner with your family on their learning journey. Let’s get started!" less...
