About
Hey, my name is Brittany, I am a college student in Washington State in the United States. I have a passion for teaching others and helping them to understand school subjects that they may find diffic... ult. I can teach all subjects but I specialize in ESL and Elementary Education.
I especially enjoy tutoring ESL, and can tutor any English level up to college level. Personally, I have struggled with challenging academic subjects, but I believe that working with me to navigate these challenges will help me to better assist other students in their journey through their own academic journeys.
I can provide additional lessons I have created to help a student go beyond what they are learning in school.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, hiking, and enjoying a cup of coffee on a nice sunny day.read more
