❓Frequently Asked Questions
🧑🏫 Are you a certified teacher?
While I don’t hold a traditional teaching degree, I bring over 3 years of experience working in the school system, supporting students with a wide range of needs. I hold an Honours Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, I’m currently completing graduate training in Educational Counselling, and I have 5+ years of experience as a trauma-aware yoga teacher.
I combine evidence-based strategies, nervous system support, and emotional insight to help students build real skills and confidence.
📚 What subjects do you tutor?
I specialize in literacy — including reading fluency, comprehension, writing, spelling, and organizational skills. I also support executive functioning and emotional regulation when it affects learning.
👩👧 What ages or grade levels do you work with?
Most of my students are in grades 1-5, but I’m happy to discuss whether your child is a good fit if they fall outside that range.
🌿 My child struggles with anxiety, ADHD, or emotional regulation. Can you help?
Yes — this is at the heart of my work. I bring a nervous-system-informed approach to learning, and many of my students are neurodivergent or experience school-related stress. I create a calm, encouraging environment where your child can focus, grow, and feel safe being themselves.
📍 Do you offer online sessions?
At this time, I offer in-person tutoring only. I’ve found that real-life connection helps me build strong relationships with my students and tailor sessions using hands-on, movement-friendly strategies that work.
📆 How often should my child attend tutoring?
Most students attend once or twice per week, depending on their needs and goals. We’ll discuss a rhythm that feels right during your consultation.
💬 Will I receive updates about my child’s progress?
Yes! I offer ongoing communication with parents — from quick check-ins to more detailed updates. You’ll never be left wondering how things are going. We’re a team.
💸 What are your rates?
Rates vary depending on session length and frequency. I offer both single sessions and monthly packages. Reach out for current availability and pricing — I’ll help you find the right fit.
