Class Experience

US Grade 7 - 12
Beginner - Advanced Level
Welcome! 
This class is meant to be a one-time tutoring session which can be booked as many times as you need to to cover the topics your student needs to be successful. 

I will help students with any subject they are having difficulty with within the subject of Earth Science and will base this entirely on the needs of the student.
 
Please let me know if the times I have available don't meet your schedule, I am happy to accommodate. 

In order to help me tutor you student well, please provide me with the following information: 
1. The topics you would like covered. 
2. The grade level of your student. 
3. The context of the learning (labs, homework, general understanding, test review, etc.). 

Here are some examples of topics that I can help your student with: the rock cycle, rocks and minerals, the geologic time scale, atmosphere and weather patterns, ocean currents, plate tectonics, astronomy, climate change, and more!

My teaching style will be tailored to your student, but generally it is a blend of lessons that aren't just informative, but also a whole lot of fun, ensuring students genuinely relish the learning journey. I'm a firm believer in connecting classroom knowledge to real-world experiences, encouraging students to view their surroundings through an exploratory lens. 

Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns!
