About Me

My experience includes 20+ years as a special education teacher, both in the classroom as well as replacement programs. Trained in Fundations Reading, Words Their Way Spelling, Lucy Calkins Writing Program, and Being a Writer writing program allows me to have a wide array of resources to choose from in order to find the best way to help your child be successful. My tutoring experience includes working with Grades K-6 in all areas, including study skills as well as organizational skills. I believe in teaching skills that your child will be able to carry with him/her through all their years of schooling, allowing them to be as successful and independent as possible. My teaching style is relaxed and incorporates a sense of humor; tutoring can be fun and not approached as working overtime for your child. Wilson Multi-sensory reading program trained, used for grades 3 on up, for students not reading at grade level. Experienced in both NJASK and PARCC test review. Soon to be involved with a specialty academic program created for young wrestlers focusing on reading and math.

Q&A with Patricia

My teaching philosophy is anyone can learn, but we all learn in different ways and at a different pace. There is not one "right" way to approach learning ,only the way that is best for you. I believe having a sense of humor and making the learner feel comfortable is a main priority to relieve learning and academic anxiety.
