Catherine Schoenfeld
Every child deserves to be proud of their learning
Private instruction to meet your child's unique needs
Would your child benefit from…
-
support with foundational academic skills?
-
assistance with current classwork?
-
help with homework/study skills?
-
preparation for upcoming state testing?
I believe that education at all levels should be a positive experience; one that builds confidence in students and allows them to take pride in their work and ownership of their growth.
With over twelve years of experience teaching and tutoring children in grades K-5, I understand where breakdowns in learning can often occur. I will create a custom educational plan that meets your child's unique needs and leaves them with the skills, confidence and autonomy to succeed in school as they move forward. I will come to your home or meet in a place of your choosing.
