Hello there,
My name is Annie S. and I live in Marietta. I have been a full time teacher and part time tutor for almost 15 years and I feel so lucky to have been able to spend such a huge part of my life doing what I love. Most recently I worked at a school in Roswell, where I loved developing student-led, inquiry-based learning opportunities. My favorite things about teaching and tutoring are developing great relationships with my students and creating experiences for them that are fun and engaging and watching students thrive and grow without feeling like they are being overworked.
I received my BS in Human Development from the University of California at Davis and my MA in Education with a focus on literacy across the curriculum from San Jose State University. Aside from teaching in the classroom and in one on one tutoring situations, I have also taught credential and MA level courses in literacy development at San Jose State University and have led several professional development sessions of varying lengths about reading and writing. Though much of my career has been spent focusing on acquiring literacy expertise, I am also knowledgeable and passionate about instruction in mathematics and social skill development.
I would love to work with you and will strive to create learning opportunities that mesh with your child's interests and peak his/her enthusiasm for learning. Please feel free to reach out!
I look forward to working with you and your children!
