About Jill
Helping young learners gain confidence and succeed in school is my passion. I have been teaching second grade for 25 years, and I truly love what I do. Supporting students as they grow in reading and math — especially those who are struggling — is the most rewarding part of my career. I am a patient, encouraging teacher who creates a calm and supportive learning environment where children feel safe to try, make mistakes, and build confidence. I believe every child can succeed with the right support and individualized instruction. I am also a parent of two children, ages 17 and 20, which gives me valuable insight into the learning process from both a teacher’s and a parent’s perspective. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my dog, Koda, who keeps me smiling and active. My goal is simple: to help your child feel confident, capable, and proud of their progress.

Why Choose Me as Your Child’s Tutor?
I specialize in tutoring young learners who are struggling with early reading and foundational math skills. I understand how important it is to build strong skills and confidence at this critical stage.
What I Offer
• Early reading and phonics support (K–2)
I help children develop phonemic awareness, decoding, sight-word recognition, and reading comprehension using proven, age-appropriate strategies.
• Foundational math tutoring for young learners
I support number sense, addition and subtraction, math fluency, and problem-solving in ways that make math feel manageable and achievable.
• Confidence-building, child-centered instruction
My sessions focus on small wins, encouragement, and positive reinforcement so children begin to believe in themselves as learners.
• Personalized tutoring
Every lesson is tailored to your child’s pace, learning style, and specific areas of need — no pressure, no rushing.
I help K–2 students build strong foundations in reading and math while developing the confidence they need to succeed in school.
