I'm Emma! I'm 27 years old and I live in Calgary with my boyfriend Kyle, our dog, and our cat. I’ve been working with kids since high school, and it’s something I’ve always been passionate about. I’m energetic, bubbly, and super creative – whether it’s planning fun activities, helping with homework, or exploring a childs interests with them, I always bring a lot of positive energy to the table. I am looking for tutoring positions over the next 2 years while I finish my current studies. I have a strong background in working with children of all ages, from babies to preschoolers to teens, including my most recent role as a specialized literacy and math instructor for students with learning disabilities. I have experience teaching kids with ADHD and autism as well. Please read more about my qualifications and teaching style on my profile :)
With years of diverse experience working with children ages 0 to 17, I am passionate about creating engaging, supportive, and fun environments that foster growth, learning, and well-being. My experience includes working as a literacy and math instructor for students with learning disabilities at a school, I developed individualized educational plans and provided specialized support to enhance their academic progress. I worked with students age 5-17 in this role, both individually and in small classes. This role honed my ability to adapt my approach to meet each child's unique needs. Through that role I gained certification and training in various teaching methods, including Wilson Reading System, Lindamood- Bell instruction for Reading and Comprehension, Jump Math, Chisanbop Math, and Woodin Math. I have completed post secondary education and I am able to teach any and all subjects, k-12. My experience also includes being an outdoor school and education guide, a camp counsellor, a preschool assistant teacher, a nanny, and even a tennis instructor. In my role as an assistant preschool teacher, I developed early childhood education plans and engaged in hands-on learning, providing a strong foundation for my ability to nurture younger children in a dynamic and stimulating environment.
