Coding Tutoring for 1st Grade

My name is Pierce Scott. I live in Utah and love basketball, football, pickleball, hiking, and video games! I work as a Data Engineer for an airline and also teach computer science courses at a university.

I am a passionate math educator who believes learning should be engaging and approachable. My background includes building resources that help students feel safe, supported, and confident in their growth. I enjoy blending creativity with structure, using tools like interactive quizzes and games to make lessons memorable. Families can count on me to bring warmth, clarity, and innovation to every learning experience.

My name is Mrs. Amy Leone, and I am a passionate and engaging educator! I have been teaching for 33 years at the same school, and I have experience in grades 2, 3, and 4, as well as STEAM PreK-5 teaching coding and robotics.

My hobbies influence my teaching style, and I'd love to explain how! Outside of teaching, I'm incredibly passionate about solo traveling and skydiving. I have visited over 22 countries and I am a licensed skydiver with more than 60 solo jumps. My love for these hobbies has taught me to stay calm under pressure, trust the process, and remain adaptable in unpredictable situations. These skills directly influence my teaching style. In my classroom, learning is an adventure and failure is seen as a stepping stone to growth. I encourage my students to embrace challenges, take calculated risks, and develop resilience. My ultimate goal is to create an environment where they feel safe to explore, iterate, and learn, just like in skydiving!

I have been teaching for 14 years in North Carolina, and I have taught a variety of grades and subjects. My passion for teaching has led me to explore different areas of education, including Technology, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math), and specific grade levels such as 5th Grade Science, 3rd Grade, and 2nd Grade. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to effectively support young learners.

I have been teaching for a couple of years now, specializing in Math and English for kids in Kindergarten through 4th grade. I’ve had the pleasure of working with learners in Pennsylvania, and I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science. I believe that education should feel like an adventure, and I’m here to make that happen! To keep our online learning fun and engaging, I love using cool visuals like counting blocks and fun coloring activities. Imagine solving math problems or crafting stories that make you feel like you’re teaming up on a quest! I’m all about finding creative ways to help kids understand their lessons and grow their confidence. I also enjoy learning about how each child learns best so I can tailor activities just for them. Outside of tutoring, I’m a big fan of art and have even helped out at the Dungeons and Dragons club after school. I draw and paint with color pencils and acrylics, which inspires me to think creatively when working with my learners. My experiences in these areas have taught me how to be adaptable and to create a safe space where kids can express themselves. Let’s embark on this exciting educational journey together!

I like to make learning fun with games and activities. Once I get to know the students better I can incorporate their interests into my lessons to help them be more engaged!

Over the past 17 years, I have had the pleasure of teaching a diverse range of learners in grades 1st through high school, covering all content areas. Originally from Louisiana, I have also taught in Mississippi and Alabama, gaining experience in different education systems and cultures. I hold a Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies degree and a MEd in Curriculum and Instruction with a concentration in STEM. In addition, I have obtained teaching certificates in both Mississippi and Alabama for grades K-6. My qualifications, combined with my years of teaching experience, equip me with the necessary skills to effectively support your child's learning journey. When it comes to online learning, I believe it is important to make it fun and engaging for students. That's why I love to use bright visuals and incorporate dance parties, trivia, and games into my lessons. I also use strategies such as quick checks and intentional scaffolding to ensure that the learning is effective. Outside of teaching, I enjoy fishing, reading books, and spending time with my family. These interests greatly influence my teaching style and methodology, as I love to incorporate my passions into lessons to make them more relatable and memorable for kids.

Hi, my name is Dr. McQueen, and I am excited to start this learning journey with you! With 11 years of experience teaching kids from Kindergarten through 9th grade, I’ve found a passion for making learning fun. I've taught a variety of subjects, including English Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, Coding, and Health in the sunny state of Mississippi. My hard work, dedication, and passion for teaching are so evident that I won Alternate Teacher of the Year for Mississippi in 2023!

I have been teaching for 14 years, in all grade levels from kindergarten through middle school.

I was born and raised in South Florida, attended college in North Carolina, moved to California to work with elementary students, then returned to the east coast, settling in Maryland to teach, tutor, coach, and develop content.
