Private Tutoring 1:1 in English Language Arts and Mathematics

This class will adhere to the Common Core Standards as applicable to the region of the learner and their individual needs.

I am a native English speaker with a 150-hour TESOL qualification from Arizona State University and post-graduate qualifications in Applied Linguistics from Monash University.

I am also a lawyer in Australia and I homeschool my own children, therefore speaking and teaching clearly have been a part of my life for many years, and now I am also applying these skills to teaching others.

I am a homeschool mother of multiple children. We have always homeschooled and participated in distance education. We came to Outschool in 2018 as learners, and now I am excited to also teach on this platform. I understand the needs of parents of learners here as I am one myself.

Learners are welcome to share their work/homework from other Mathematics classes that they may be taking, either at a regular school or in another online program if they require help with it so that Pamela can explain it to them in another way that helps them to understand what is required to complete said task.

Learners and Parents/Guardians/Carers are welcome to request assessment catered to suit their requirements, whether it be to practice for an upcoming test elsewhere, or to complete a portfolio for homeschool or another learning platform online or in "real life."
