"Hello! My name is Elisa and I am excited to support others with their educational goals! I have over 18 years of experience working with children, more than 13 years of experience in a school setting, and 10 years of teaching experience, focusing mostly in Special Education. I have taught autistic support, learning support, and emotional support in grades ranging from K-6.

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications from the University of Pennsylvania, and a Master's degree in Education from Arcadia University. My current teaching certifications are Pre-K-4 General Education and Pre-K-8 Special Education, and I'm working towards a certification in Special Education 7-12. I currently work in a public school district, where I have been happily employed for 12 years.

Learning is a passion of mine, and I love to learn, as well as learn from others while supporting students academically, socially, and emotionally. I have been babysitting since I was a teenager, and have been tutoring since I was in college. I am able to assist in all elementary subjects, as well as special education, test preparation, and executive functioning skills including organization and time management.

My heart belongs in autistic support, and I especially enjoy working with students who have intellectual and/or learning disabilities. My approach is student-centered and I strive to proactively promote a student's strengths and interests while supporting challenges and strategically implementing interventions and learning techniques. I am available in person and online, and will work to meet your needs in a seamless, comfortable, and productive manner.

My personal interests include British Medieval History and all things Disney. I look forward to meeting you and learning about your interests too!" less...
