"Current CA credentialed & experienced Teacher Muse providing tutoring support gr. 2-9. BA and teaching credential (UCLA), multiple subject (elementary) w/ supplementary single subject authorizations (through 9th grade) in mathematics (through Geometry) and English.

Originally taught 6th/7th grade self-contained/all subjects, in an elementary school setting. This included LA/world history core, math/science core, & everything else. Creatively incorporated into a multi-discipline program also involved participation in the development of standards across the curriculum. My English authorization includes reading/vocabulary development & paragraph/essay writing.

Then with my math authorization as a middle school teacher, I found a teaching niche as a creative middle school Pre-Algebra Teacher Muse; grade 7 with accelerated sixth graders (occasionally with sections of SDAIE-7, Integrated-1, Geometry, or Algebra 1). I was involved w/math challenges, school contests, state standards (county rep.), and a Harry Potter Club w/ Gym Quidditch.

In 2014, I extended my Teacher Muse repertoire tutoring w/ WyzAnt, teaching a 4th grade summer school math enrichment, and a substitute teaching (gr. 2-8).

So for students of all ages, Teacher Muse tutoring is about sharing learning in ways that are personally meaningful, individually connect, and make sense in different ways w/ joy. I also have the subject content articulation understanding experience of where/how thematic topics continue/connect & the ability to scaffold for the learner. Able to assist students prepare for math placement tests, transition to various math programs at different schools, and offer math reading diagnostic tests.

Whether it be math challenges, writing/vocabulary, organization skills, homework/exam prep., and/or subject empowerment/confidence/advancement,... I invite you to consider a Teacher Muse along as a tutor guide for a positive journey adventure." less...
