Squishmallows Paragraph Academy: 1-On-1 Writing Tutoring & Practice

✨ In my one-on-one classes, every session is 100% personalized to meet the learner's unique needs, ensuring they get the focused attention and support they deserve. For my group classes, I keep the maximum size to just three learners so that every participant feels heard, receives plenty of attention, and benefits from a more personalized experience. I design engaging educational games and activities with a strong academic foundation, blending fun with skill-building to foster meaningful learning. Each session is crafted to support academic growth, boost confidence, and spark a lasting love for learning. ✨

Welcome to My Classroom! 🌟

Hi there! I’m Miss Sammi, and I’m so excited to be part of your child’s learning adventure! I studied Early Childhood Education at the University of Toledo, where hands-on experiences with children helped me discover my passion for teaching. Since then, I’ve been dedicated to creating fun, supportive learning environments that inspire growth and confidence.

Beyond teaching, I have over 10 years of experience as an advanced esthetician. My passion for skincare comes from my own struggles with acne as a teen, which sparked a deep desire to help others feel confident in their skin. I’ve brought this knowledge into the classroom, offering insights on self-care and confidence-building alongside academic growth.

I am also neurodivergent, and I understand that each learner's brain works uniquely. I use my own experiences to create an inclusive, understanding, and supportive classroom. This perspective allows me to better connect with learners and tailor lessons in a way that respects and embraces individual learning styles.

At home, I’m a creative mom who designs interactive games to keep my son engaged, and I bring that same creativity into my personalized, tailored classes. I believe play is a powerful tool for building confidence, problem-solving skills, and imagination, and I use it to create unique learning experiences that are customized to each learner's needs and interests. This allows every learner to feel excited and motivated as they progress at their own pace.

When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me with my animal family! 🐾 Friends often call me ‘Snow White’ because of my love for animals. I care for five cats 🐱, a dog 🐶, a turtle 🐢, a bearded dragon 🦎, and a Betta fish 🐟! I also look after the local wildlife, including deer, birds, raccoons, and opossums.

My goal is to create a nurturing, fun, and dynamic classroom where learners feel comfortable, respected, and motivated to learn. By keeping my classes small, I ensure each learner receives the attention they deserve. In my classes, learners not only strengthen academic skills but also build confidence, creativity, and communication skills that will benefit them for life.

I can’t wait to meet your learner and embark on this exciting journey together! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’m thrilled to be part of your child’s educational growth!
