Helping Simi Valley Kids Love Reading
Many parents look for a tutor when a child is working hard but still falling behind in reading, or when homework has turned into a nightly battle. One-on-one tutoring takes the pressure off. We slow down, find exactly where the gaps are, and build skills back up step by step.
I drive over from Agoura Hills for in-home sessions, and we can also meet at the Simi Valley Public Library.

Tutoring for Simi Valley Unified Students
Simi Valley students attend Simi Valley Unified schools such as Wood Ranch, Big Springs, Atherwood, Berylwood, Madera, Knolls and Hollow Hills Elementary. Private school families are welcome too, including students from St. Rose of Lima and Grace Brethren.
A strong foundation in the elementary years helps kids head into Hillside, Sinaloa or Valley View Middle School ready for more independent reading and writing.
