"Hello! My name is Yvonda, and I’m a dedicated elementary tutor with a strong passion for helping young learners build confidence and achieve academic success.

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education, and I am a certified K–6 teacher. I also have a Master's Degree in Teaching English as a Second Language. I have also completed professional development courses in Differentiated Instruction, which helps me tailor lessons to meet each student’s unique learning style and pace.

I have over 20 years of teaching and tutoring experience, working with students from kindergarten through fifth grade. My background includes both classroom teaching and one-on-one tutoring, allowing me to support students in a variety of learning environments. I have taught all core subjects, reading, writing, math, science, and social studies with a particular focus on strengthening foundational reading and math skills.

My tutoring approach is student-centered and hands-on. I believe learning should be engaging, interactive, and confidence-building. I often incorporate games, visual aids, and real-world examples to make concepts clear and enjoyable. My goal is to help each child not only improve their academic skills but also develop a genuine love for learning." less...
