"My name is Peyton, and I am excited about the opportunity to support your child’s learning journey. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and have been teaching first grade for the past two years. Before that, I spent two years teaching preschool, which gave me a strong foundation in early childhood education and an understanding of how young learners develop academically and socially. While in college, I also tutored families in my community through Zoom, helping students strengthen their reading, writing, and math skills in a personalized and engaging way. These experiences have allowed me to work with children of different ages and backgrounds, building strategies that meet individual needs and encourage confidence.

As a tutor, I believe learning should be supportive, interactive, and enjoyable. I work to create a positive environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions, and celebrating progress. I focus on breaking down concepts into manageable steps, using a mix of hands-on activities, clear explanations, and consistent practice to build understanding. My goal is to help each child not only succeed academically but also develop a love for learning and a sense of independence. Whether we are working on foundational skills in reading, building number sense in math, or strengthening study habits, I tailor my approach to each child’s unique learning style and needs." less...
