About Linda

I have been a teacher and tutor for many years, ranging in grade level from Pre-K to 8th grade. I have helped children of all ages, but my forte is with preschool children. I help them in getting ready to enter kindergarten with the educational, emotional, and social skills they will need for a strong foundation to love the learning . Currently, I am tutoring two kindergarten students, helping them keep up with math and reading. I am a piano teacher and I also teach tennis, two of my favorite hobbies. I am also an ESL child specialist, as well as being able to teach English to adults. Recently, I have been homeschooling two girls for the past three years, as well as private tutoring for a 3rd, 5th and 6th grader. We worked on math skills, reading and phonics skills, as well as science projects. A program we worked on was for the state testing, and the children were well prepared for the questions posed to them and how to process these questions, as well as time management skills, which are necessary in testing. Home schooling is a great way to educate your children. I home schooled two brothers, from the Boston Red team, last spring, very rewarding and the boys had a fun time learning in the fundamental ways as well as creatively. Private tutoring is also so beneficial to your child's progress, targeting those areas where they really need one on one help. I have my background check and fingerprinting done.
