About Maria

I foster an engaging, supportive, and patient learning environment. I vary my teaching strategies, such as using visual aids and hands-on activities. Regular check-ins with parents and feedback are important to me. I connect challenging topics to real-world examples. I break down complex problems into manageable steps. Open dialogue is essential for understanding student needs and building trust. With a graduate degree and one year of experience, I tutor elementary and middle school students in Math and Foreign Language. Witnessing a student's "aha!" moment is the most rewarding aspect of being a tutor. I have a car and am comfortable tutoring at your home and with pets. I would love to help your student thrive!
