Every August my mother would ask what I wanted to be when I grew up. By the time I was in 9th grade, I knew I wanted to work with children. By the end of 9th grade I realized that I would be happiest working with children to help them understand academics and to use that knowledge beyond the classroom. The rest, as they say, is history.

I'm a graduate of Humboldt State University. I have 2 Bachelor's degrees, Psychology and Multiple Subjects, commonly known as elementary education. I have additional supplementary authorizations in English, allowing me to teach up to 12th grade in that subject, and the CLAD authorization, which allows me to teach English as a second language. I have over 20 years of experience utilizing these degrees as a teacher and tutor.

About the lesson

First, I have a conversation with the parent(s) and/or student through this websiteI want a student to feel comfortable with me, as I will be someone who will spend time one-on-one with them, so I want them to feel that they can discuss their concerns with me.

Then, I will assess for issues or skills that need strengthening. I will discuss my expectations of behavior and the goals that we will share in getting the student to achieve academic success.

I have worked with students from kinder through 12th grade in most subjects, and with students who are just learning English for the 1st time. Some students were accelerated learners and others were overcoming academic challenges. In all cases, I have endeavored to make learning interesting and strengthen the student's self confidence.

Make sure this teacher is well spoken, knowledgeable and that you feel comfortable in this person's presence.

This is a tough question due to the broad nature of the inquiry.

Any time a student's face lights up with the knowledge that they understand a new concept, become aware of their own abilities and their confidence grows are the times I am most fond of.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Can you adequately describe your concern?

Is this the appropriate teacher to ask?

Can you accept that a teacher may not have the answer? Therefore, you must continue to search for information.p>

Perfect! She has been working with my 2 daughters for about 2 years. She has been patient with them, she helps them engage with math even though they often are not very fond of the subject. She gives a good explanation of the concepts they are studying and tries to help them understand the different approaches to answering the problem. My daughters do enjoy learning from Ms. Starr.

Perfect! Ms. Starr was very helpful in catching my nephew up to grade level, especially after he changed school districts and transitioned into middle school. She was professional and communicated after each session what was worked on. Highly recommend!

Mrs. Star was excellent! She kept things light and fun while tackling the hard subject. She also planned fun creative projects to break up the book work.

She goes through items with your child in things they don’t understand until it makes sense to them. She provides them with homework to complete helping them to always strive to do better.

Ms Starr has helped my 9 year old progress milestones this past year. My son was struggling in school and needed a lot of one on one attention. Ms Starr was patient with my son and worked with him day in and out until he got down a lot of concepts. We are grateful we found such an awesome teacher and will continue to work with her.

Me. Starr did a great job getting my 5th grader up to speed. My son was very behind due to online schooling, Ms. Starr was able to turn him around, and get him caught up in a short amount of time.
