If you need samples and/or printables in the subject we are working on, we can provide those as well, for your records. If there is something else you need not mentioned here, please reach out to us and we will see what we can do. Feel free to contact us for a 30-minute free consultation on Zoom to see how we can best meet your child’s learning needs. 

About Christy

I am a credentialed teacher passionate about helping students find confidence and joy in learning. I have been an educator for over 25 years. Half of this time, I taught primary grades in the public-school setting, the other half, I supported homeschool families as an Education Specialist through a public charter school.

 

I hold a current California Multiple Subject Credential with a CLAD certification. I have a Masters in Education in Curriculum and Instruction. The training I’ve received as an educator, as well as my experience, has equipped me to provide support and instruction for those needing intervention, English language learners, those needing extra support or those needing to be challenged.

Testimonials

"Christy is a very good teacher with a lot of knowledge! My kids had her as a tutor and ES for over 4 years and I see big improvements. Excellent tutor, I totally recommend her." - Lily, parent

 

"I love Ms. Christy's tutoring because she is easy to learn from and makes it fun. She explains things really well and is always easy to understand. She is really patient with me and helps me understand better if I get something wrong. Things that are normally hard to learn do not feel as hard when she teaches me. We laugh and have fun but still learn a lot!!" - Audrey, 5th grade student

​

"Christy has been amazing to work with! Both our children look forward to their meeting every week and have said it is their most favorite part of the school year. Christy is so patient and thorough. They have learned so much and retain what it is being taught because it is comfortable and enjoyable for them. She teaches in a very encouraging way and does a great job with being aware of different learning styles and different personalities then finding what works for that specific student. We are always so amazed how she makes virtual learning interactive. Her heart for teaching is a gift and comes through the screen in every session. We are so thankful!!"  - Amber, Parent

 

"She makes learning really fun! It is my favorite part of school!" - Landon, 1st grade student

​

"I highly recommend Christy!! She brings to the table a wealth of knowledge from curriculum to learning styles and tailors instruction to the needs of each student, (including English learners and special needs students).  Several of my students work with Christy on an individual basis. I’m impressed with the work my students show me, the samples they bring to our meetings, as well as their ability to retell what they’ve learned. Christy knows how to add that ‘spoonful of sugar’ to every tutoring session and makes learning fun." - Nancy H., Education Specialist
