About Deborah

I'd describe my personality as curious, dedicated, patient I like tutoring because I believe every child can improve when they have the right support. I prefer working online because it maximizes time I can spend planning and delivering great tutoring. I started tutoring when I was in high school. I was an honors English student and selected to tutor my peers in our school's writing center. I have been tutoring consistently at least part-time for almost 40 years. In my spare time, I like to read historical fiction and sew. One thing you should know about me is I hold myself and my students to high standards. I respect their time and their parents' trust in me enough to do my utmost to help my students learn how to do their personal best! My skills include quickly assessing areas for improvement, effectively communicating with students and parents, and making concrete, actionable plans complete with milestones and achievable goals.
