Welcome! Greater Gains Tutoring was started by Julie Chamberlin when she embarked on her Outschool journey as a teacher about 2 years ago. Since then, her classes have taken off, so much so that she became an organization and added on some other teachers to help more students learn and grow. Teachers that work for Greater Gains Tutoring are highly skilled, most certified in Elementary Education with a background specializing in either reading or math. Having helped many students have successes and gains in their education, we are confident in our classes and our abilities to help your learner make great strides. While our group classes are tailored to meet individual students needs, private tutoring is also available upon request. You can count on Greater Gains teachers to provide classes that both ensure growth and make learning fun. Please reach out to us with any other questions you may have. We look forward to meeting your learner and seeing the greater gains they can make when working with our exceptional team of teachers.
About the Founder, Julie Chamberlin: I am currently a part time stay at home mom part time reading teacher that loves teaching. I have a background in Elementary Education specializing in grades K-6. I am also working on my Masters degree in Curriculum Instruction with a Reading Endorsement. In addition to Outschool, I currently tutor all ages and subjects in my spare time. I love teaching English to second language learners as well. As a homeschooling mama of four, I am able to combine my passion of being with my children and teaching together so it's a win win for everyone! When I have free time, you can find me reading a book, listening to music, or playing the piano. As a family we also like watch sports, play games, and take walks together. Life is an adventure, and I love learning and exploring something new each day. I hope I can help instill that love of learning in your learner as well.
