I can work with your child in whatever areas where he/she could use more challenge or support; math, writing, organization, study skills, printing, and language arts (comprehension, vocabulary, spelling, fluency, phonics, and sight words). I am flexible with your family's schedule and will provide all supplies - manipulatives, worksheets, flashcards, and books. I have found that the Thousand Oaks or Newbury Park Library are ideal places for tutoring because of their central locations, convenient hours, and enriching learning atmosphere - but we can determine the meet-up location together.
