US Grade 5
This 19 week course covers fifth grade math. It has a total of 19 weeks and meets twice per week for 45 minutes. Each week is a different math objective. My classes are interactive and fun. Learners should be familiar with place value, addition/subtraction, multiplication/division, and fractions. I like to engage the children and we all problem solve together. I use fun animated PowerPoint slides during my lessons. I always encourage learner interaction and I check in occasionally with a thumbs up to make sure there are no questions before we proceed. I will send out a worksheet, homework, or other material to be printed each week. I post them the day before class. If you can, please print and bring to class. Or you may bring some paper and pencil. I will also let you know if there are other materials that are needed for the week.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Mount Holyoke College
Hello! My name is Erin Howard. I love teaching young learners. My passion is to help your young learner gain the knowledge and confidence in their basic math skills. My math classes focus on skills such as solving word problems, learning math fact families, place value, telling time, geometry, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
I have my bachelor’s degree from Mount Holyoke College. I have owned a home daycare, privately tutored students in math, and was a teaching assistant in college. I have taught over 8,000 classes online.
My goal is to bring fun, excitement, and passion into my classroom. It is important for young learners to be engaged, actively participate, and enjoy learning. This builds the foundation of how they will view their journey for knowledge in the future. I know I have accomplished this goal when my students continue to return to my classroom, and I see their personal improvement and how proud they are of their progress.
Outside of work, I am a mother of five children, and I have three grandchildren. My children are my pride and joy. My youngest two children are twins. They are nineteen years old and they are sophomores in college. We enjoy cooking, baking, playing with our dog, watching movies, shopping, and taking trips to visit new places.
I look forward to this journey with you and your young learner. I will see you in the classroom.
