About Tara
Experience: 8 yrs
I have a BA from UCLA in theater, 6+ years experience as an LAUSD elementary school substitute teacher, and extensive experience working with and performing for children. I have years of experience with children ages 3 and up. I love kids, and aim to create an engaging, creative, and safe environment with all the kids I've taught or babysat. I encourage healthy activities like playing active games outside. I can also tutor, specializing in writing, editing, K-12 math, and help with homework in general. I'm also a safe driver and comfortable with basic First Aid.
Most recent review
I supervised Tara when I was an elementary school principal and she was a long-term substitute teacher. She was phenomenal! She was very enthusiastic and her lessons were engaging. Highly recommended!
