"Jane is a retired teacher who has taught Math, Reading, Writing, Drama, Creative Theater Arts, and French to children through middle school. Teaching is her passion, helping children better understand what they are learning and/or explore concepts on a deeper level.

What she likes about tutoring is the chance to work one-to-one and watch for the "aha" moment showing better understanding and mastery.

I'm patient and I use familiar examples to teach concepts, making math real. I have been trained in the elementary Algebra Project.

My studies of French gave me a deeper understanding of English. I have learned grammar since I was in elementary school. During my career, I had the chance to teach children from all over the world and help them and their families understand English.

I earned a BA in Elementary Education with a second major in French from St. Norbert College. I later completed an MS in Curriculum and Instruction from UW-Madison.

I look forward to hearing from you to discuss how I might assist your student.

In my spare time, I like to hang out with my dog, do some acting in plays or films. You’ll also find me exploring crafts and art." less...
