Alexis

I am a dual certified special education and general education teacher for over five years. I am certified in the state New York and attended and received my bachelor's degree in New York. I have been tutoring remotely for 4 years now with grades K-12.

Tutoring Style

My main goal is to get to know each individual student and their likes. It is important to implement a student's likes and interest in our lesson whenever possible! If you like sports, video games or anything, however I can incorporate that into an engaging tutoring session, I will always do my best to do so!

Success Story

One of my favorite student success stories is my student who I met in kindergarten during COVID. She was struggling not only academically but behaviorally. She was struggling with her letters and words. This carried her to the following grade. We spent 3 hours a day, five days a week in the summer. Not only working on her academically, but behaviorally. During the time, getting to better know her outside of school, once noticing the behavioral stemmed from her feeling "unable to read and talk" like her friends, we spent years also focusing on her confidence. Now she is able to read, write, spell well above grade level after 3 years of working closely together. She no longer needs her IEP and services at this time, too!

Hobbies & Interests

Hiking, biking, spending time with family and friends. I enjoy attending concerts, going to the gym and being there for all my little sister's never ending sports games!
