Mara

My name is Mara Harnett. After raising my two sons, I earned my Master's Degree in Education and became an elementary school teacher. I then completed two-year training with the Orton-Gillingham Academy for teaching Sturctured Literacy. I have taught first through sixth grades, most recently teaching third and fourth grades.  Over the years, I have taught at The Packer Collegiate School, The Corlears School, The Strauss School and The Middle School for Gifted and Talented Youth.  I love children and have a gentle, attentive nature and a kind heart. I am able to support the unique learning styles of my students with flexibility and skill. I am conscientious and will dedicate myself to tutoring your child. I enjoy engaging students in reading, writing and math development.  I look forward to supporting your child's learning development, as well as assisting them in navigating their school work. Please let me know what you value for your child, and need from me as your child's tutor. I am here to help.
