Class Experience

US Grade Kindergarten - 4

Beginner - Advanced Level

We'll start out our sessions with a fun game that will help me assess your learner's skills.  One of the skills we'll work on is fact fluency.  This is so important for young mathematicians.  Simply memorizing them doesn't always work.  Based on the learner's needs, we may also cover money, time, measurement, number sense, geometry and word problems, using games wherever possible.   We will touch on a few skills every week, or concentrate on just one for awhile.  I keep in mind expectations for approximate grade levels that correspond to your learner's age, and once a student meets those, we move on to the next level.  I work with both gifted learners and learners who just need more time.  Please contact me if you have any questions!

Learning Goals

Learners will work on fact fluency, as well as other skills and strategies they may need or are interested in exploring.  The goal is for a learner to become confident in their math ability, and love it!

Teacher expertise and credentials

Florida Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education

Master's Degree in Education from University of Northern Colorado

Hello!  I am MarySue Gulick.  (Ms. MarySue for learners).  My journey on Outschool has evolved into mainly one-on-one tutoring.  I love taking math further with enrichment activities, and also take learners wherever they are developmentally and move them forward.  I love language arts too, and will tutor both reading and writing upon request.  
  I had a Florida Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education, with an Endorsement in Gifted Education.  My Master's Degree is in Gifted Education from the University of Northern Colorado.  My Bachelor's degree is in Elementary Education from the University of Central Florida. I taught in both Florida and Colorado for a total of 23 years.   
  The majority of my classroom teaching was in self-contained gifted classrooms, from first to fourth grades.  I "retired" from teaching at the end of May, 2019. Now I'm enjoying sharing some lessons my students and I loved with learners on Outschool!  My teaching philosophy is to make sure my content is engaging and fun for students, and they will learn!    
  Personally, my husband and I have been married since we were teenagers, we have two kids, and we now have two awesome grandkids.  We love to camp in our motorhome named Margot, and we spend part of the summer in Northern Michigan, where we both grew up.  I am looking forward to meeting your learner!
