Class Experience

In this 1:1 private tutoring class (subscription based), students will be met exactly where they are in their learning journey. Whether that is in an area they're struggling or an area they'd like to advance in - instruction will be created to meet them wherever they are. 

Tutoring sessions are taught by a certified teacher who has over 10 years of experience. Sessions can be focused on one subject or multiple, splitting the session to cover one or more subjects OR over the course of more than one session a week. This can be decided upon with guardian and teacher discretion. 

In order for this to be a successful experience for your learner, a conversation about your learner's needs is expected before their scheduled session. Please message me with details that are essential for a productive experience. If you are unsure of what your learner needs, please specify and a general assessment can take place for the first meeting.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Texas Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello there! My name is Meri Sue Michalak, or Ms. M, and I teach classes with the intention of developing life-long, confident and independent learners. Whether that be through my fun social clubs, writing courses or private tutoring, the goal is to give students the tools they need to succeed in being their absolute BEST self. I believe that at the root of teaching is not just about presenting curriculum or hitting learning goals; it's developing a child as a whole. You will find that I am extremely personable and engaging with all of my students. I believe that every child deserves an equitable learning experience so I always take care in developing courses that serve all learning styles. I have 10+ years of experience in the childcare and education field. From Preschool Music Teacher, After-School Care Site Director to Private Elementary Tutor, I have a well-rounded professional background. I also have a Bachelors degree in Interdisciplinary Studies, EC-8 and I hold a Teaching Certificate for EC-8th grade. One of my favorite things about working in this field are the relationships I've built with families and kiddos. Many of my students are ones I've known for years and watched grow into themselves. 

You can find me in Austin, Texas (keepin' it weird!) with my husband MJ, preschooler Maxine, and two doggies Luke and Willie. I love cooking, baking (and tending to my sourdough!), writing, reading, watching a good TV series and spending time with friends & family. 

I hope to meet you soon! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. I love to chat with families about their specific needs so I can accommodate to the best of my ability.
