Bio
Academic Tutor/Learning Enthusiast
Aside from being with her family, where is Anna most at home? Anywhere with children and school supplies! Anna has used her education (Elementary Education degree with a Reading Endorsement, Science of Learning and TESOL certificates) while serving as a classroom teacher, homeschool educator, private tutor, and eLearning Coach. She has added online instructor to her list of most loved activities and is so excited to work with students near and far. Anna has been recognized for her personalized attention to each student in her care. She listens and learns from her students as they reveal their strengths and interests. She utilizes this information to deliver Science of Learning-backed lessons that are engaging and tailor-made. Students may have to wrestle with new concepts before understanding is attained, but Anna's goal is to guide each student in learning how to learn. That is a skill that will transfer to every subject and will inspire life-long learning.
