About Elizabeth

My service stands out because I am an experienced classroom teacher who has taught many students with varying capabilities. I have taught all subjects, but I always prefer math, which is usually a subject people run from the most. I appreciate how math teaching has moved away from just algorithms to meeting kids at their level by having them use pictures, visual models, and sometimes hands-on materials before moving onto algorithms. It's important to find methods that meet kids where they currently are before moving onto strategies they aren't ready for just yet.

I obviously enjoy classroom teaching, but I know private tutoring can be a game changer for many students. Often, a lot of students are shy or embarrassed to ask for the help they need in class, so I enjoy getting to work with students one-on-one, so their confusion can be cleared up without them worrying about peer pressure.

I graduated from UNC Charlotte with a B.A. in Elementary Education. I joined the Teach for America program, which places us in high needs schools throughout the country. My placement was in Charlotte. I taught in Charlotte for a three years before making my way back to Raleigh. 



I have a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Elementary Education from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. I have professional licenses in Elementary Education and Elementary Mathematics. I have six years of teaching experience in 4th and 5th grades.

I would give them a pre assessment (typically an EOG for their grade level) to determine which standards and skills they have mastered and what they need practice with. I would also confer with the parent on what the teacher has suggested and what the parent has concerns with too.



I have taught 4th and 5th grade students in Title I schools with varying academic capabilities. I have taught special education students to academically/intellectually gifted students.



Make sure the teacher has experience with your particular grade level. 



In January, I found out that my 5th grade students from last year placed in the top 25% of our district and the state of North Carolina for their growth on the math EOG.



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Ask what kinds of strategies do you use for different skills. Ask if the teacher uses pictures, visual models, or hands-on materials to help. Ask if the teacher uses online resources as well.
