Nottingham Private Tutors for In-Home Tutoring

About: I am currently a graduate student at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health; I am working towards my Master's Degree in Molecular Microbiology & Immunology. I have extensive knowledge in advanced science, but am a firm believer on building a primary foundation in general concepts. I've worked with several students to explain scientific concepts in more understandable ways. I create analogies, use videos, and personalize the knowledge in a way that makes sense. I am actively, yet very patient. I truly enjoy putting in the time, as education is a love of mine. I understand the many factors that go into being academically successful, and I work to take these into consideration with tutoring sessions.

About: At the age of 35, I was diagnosed with ADHD, which felt like a curse, but after becoming a teacher, I learned that my failures and disappoints were my greatest asset, because I have a unique understanding of the frustrations and pain that comes from having ADD/ADHD. During my childhood, I was ridiculed by my parents, but I channeled my trials into a master’s degree in teaching from Notre Dame of Maryland University in 2011. I now have certifications in secondary science, special education, elementary education, and 13 years of classroom-based experience. I am available from 8am to 8pm, and I would be honored to help your child become a successful student. I specialize in working with children and adults who have Autism as well as children who have developmental delays, and I can also help you advocate for appropriate services for your child by walking you through the IEP/504 process.

About: Hello, my name is Makia. I am a certified teacher who has over 10 years experience teaching in Prince George's County, Baltimore City, and Harford County. I started as a fourth-grade self-contained teacher and then eventually became the fourth-grade reading teacher at Potomac Landing in Fort Washington, MD. After moving to the Baltimore area, I taught fourth-grade Literacy and Social Studies at Gwynns Falls Elementary and various grade levels and subject areas in Harford County, MD. I have extensive experience working with students with special needs, and homeschooled children. I believe that today's children are not as successful in school because the curriculum being taught is a "cookie-cutter" program that is delivered to all students the same way. However, it is my belief that students need to have their individual needs addressed by providing them with multiple ways to not only access the curriculum but also to show mastery of what they have learned.
