About Leighanne
Experience: 10 yrs
I am a special education consultant, licensed administrator, and former teacher for grades 5- 12 Special Education and 6 -12 Mathematics who is currently supporting home school families and providing supplemental, individualized instruction. I have 19 years tutoring experience in all subject areas including early literacy, mathematics, executive functioning, handwriting, and test prep. I am the very proud mom of 4 wonderful kids aged 22 -29. I love animals and sports, spend lots of time outdoors, and enjoy games and day trips. I spend my summers beaching, babysitting, and doing all sorts of fun stuff with the children in my care, including doing crafts, going to the park, and visiting museums.
Most recent review
We are beyond grateful for Leighanne and the incredible work she has done tutoring our two homeschooled daughters, ages 13 and 16. From the very beginning, she has brought so much patience, kindness, and dedication to every session. The system she uses has kept our girls not only active in their learning, but truly engaged and excited to grow. What stands out most is her ability to create a tailored curriculum that meets each of our girls exactly where they are. She understands their strengths, encourages them through challenges, and gives them the confidence to keep pushing forward. The one-on-one attention has been such a blessing, and the progress we’ve seen in both of them has been remarkable. Leighanne is also wonderfully communicative and responsive, which makes the entire homeschooling journey feel smooth and supported. As parents, it brings us peace of mind knowing our girls are being guided by someone who genuinely cares about their growth. We truly feel blessed to have found her, and we couldn’t ask for a better tutor for our daughters.
