About Dora
I am a grandmother of 11 and have worked with children all of my life in a variety of settings, from classrooms, and private agencies to online. I have helped students from preschool through high school, as well as children and adults with Autism. I have excellent rapport with students and their families. Recognizing each student's academic strengths and weaknesses, and their learning style is foundational to having success in helping them to excel, and I have strong abilities in these things. My students respect my expectations, but also know that I am patient, and will reinforce hard work. I will integrate past topics periodically to ensure they are being retained, and to allow the student to feel confident in their ability.

I generally begin with assessing previous years' skills when working with a new student. Any gaps that I discern will then be integrated into our sessions as we also learn new skills. I will begin to learn the student's learning style and we will use that to help our sessions to be productive. My students are always met with patience, along with clear expectations to use our time wisely, and I will also integrate fun and reinforcement.

I highly recommend Dora to parents and their students who are looking for a qualified English tutor. I have known Dora since 2010, when we were both educators at an early learning school which serves children through 5th grade. I also know her as a mom and grandma whose children/grandchildren reflect her genuine love of learning. She is a caring, creative and competent teacher of all ages.
Dora was a terrific tutor for my son for over two years - not an easy thing to do to tutor a 4 and 5 year old via zoom!
She went above and beyond in finding ways to connect with him by incorporating characters from his favorite shows in her lessons, developing games to play together to keep him engaged, and built a warm, supportive relationship that helped him become a stellar reader. Really terrific, patient, kind. Highly recommended!Ms. Dora is an exceptional instructor who works closely with my 5-year-old daughter to develop her English skills. She is both professional and proficient, effectively helping my daughter learn while skillfully redirecting her when needed.
Dora is my mother. She homeschooled me and my sister. Additionally, she continues to assist with homeschooling my six children. Dora has a natural talent with children, especially when it comes to teaching and tutoring.
Dora is patient and creative in her teaching style, and meets kids wherever they are to help them achieve their educational goals. I have seen her work with children over the years with great success!Dora has been tutoring my kids for over 10 years. She is fantastic with the kids and they love their time learning with her. She knows how to explain things to the kids in a way they understand while enjoying themselves. She is especially good with learning to read for the little ones but she is also very adept at teaching writing skills and critical thinking. I would recommend her for anyone looking for extra help with elementary learning of any kind.
