Dear Parents, I am a natural when it comes to teaching as I readily engage students. I pay attention to how each student learns best to discern strategies that work. Students learn best when the process is engaging, meaningful and fun. I have spent much time as a credentialed teacher at the elementary, middle, high and college levels while simultaneously working in positions of leadership. Over the years, I have spent plenty of time tutoring students, again, of all grade levels and aptitudes. I can successfully tutor elementary students in all subject areas and have an especially strong background in helping all students develop their reading, writing and critical thinking skills. My credentials are in Art, English/Language Arts, French and History/Social Studies and a hold a Master's.

I highly recommend Lynn Z. as a tutor. I hired Lynn as a private tutor for my two daughters (fourth and first graders, respectively) online here at Care.com. The interview process was impressive and noteworthy. Lynn exceeded all our prerequisites in regards to loving kids, possessing a strong background as a teacher of Language Arts (including reading critically, phonics, grammar, writing). She has great Math and Spanish competencies and knows about grade level learning skills essential for development. Within 4 weeks of her tutorial, my daughter's grades improved significantly by one letter grade. I owe that to Ms. Lynn! Lynn also has excellent written and verbal communication skills, is extremely resourceful (providing age appropriate curriculum), reliable, attentive, creative & artistic, and computer literate. Her ability to engage effectively with my daughters and make them think knowledgeably is critical. Also, she provides library books from award winner lists (Caldecott and Newbery) helping my girls read more. In truth, my girls look forward to seeing her every week without complaints of studying. She has accomplished the simplest and greatest of tasks - the Love of Learning . I recommend Lynn Z. without reservation.
