Coding Tutoring for Elementary

My name is Alex, I like video games and technology. I am a computer science major.

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

With 18 years of teaching experience, I am thrilled to bring my expertise to 1:1 sessions with learners at Dojo Tutor. Throughout my career, I have taught a variety of grades and subjects, including 2nd grade, 5th grade Math, Early Childhood, and Technology. I have had the pleasure of teaching in the great state of New Jersey, where I have helped countless kids grow and succeed. I hold a Computer Science Degree from William Paterson College, as well as a K-5 Teaching Certification and 11 IT Certification. Outside of teaching, you can find me playing tennis or hanging out with my pet turtle. I believe that getting to know my learners and incorporating their interests into our lessons makes for a fun and engaging learning experience. My goal is to keep our lessons focused and effective by constantly checking in and reviewing material. Let's work together to make learning a blast.

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.

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.

I have been teaching for 8 years, and have experience working with learners in Elementary through 12th grade in a variety of subjects including Math, Reading, Writing, Science, Social Studies, and Career Resource Education. I am certified to teach K-6 in all subjects, 6-12 in Business Education and Agriculture Education, and have a reading endorsement. Besides my passion for teaching, I also have a few personal interests and hobbies that I enjoy outside of the classroom. I am a certified scuba diver and love exploring the beautiful underwater world. I also enjoy embroidery and spending time watching college football.

I am someone who genuinely enjoys helping kids learn and feel confident in themselves. With a Master’s degree in Computer Science, I love sharing skills in math, coding, and financial literacy in a way that feels approachable and encouraging. I have years of experience working with children from 1st grade to 10th grade, and I care deeply about helping each learner feel supported and capable.

Hello families. My name is Lisa Papa and I have taught 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade reading, writing, and mathematics for 25 years, 20 of those years at a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence. I have extensive experience in and resources for these areas. I have tutored kids in reading, writing, and mathematics grades PK-9 throughout my years as a teacher and I have conducted reteach and enrich groups for reading and mathematics as well. I have read thousands of children’s books so if your child is a reluctant reader I can recommend books they may like based on their interests or other books they have liked in the past. In addition to my years of experience, I have taken hundreds of hours of professional development classes in reading, writing, and mathematics including classes with Barry Lane, Sue Yokum, Fred Jones, and other reading, writing, and math masters and leaders. I look forward to being a partner with you and your child's teacher to help your child on their educational journey. My goal is for every student to love learning and to feel success and happiness at school. I know at the top of the profile in the Quick Look section it says I have 22 years experience, but then when you read the paragraph about my teaching experience it says 25 years. I have been working with Class Dojo tutoring since it started in 2022 and the Quick Look info hasn't been updated since then, but I do update my profile paragraph regularly so it has the most up-to-date information for you. I thought it was important you know why the numbers seem like they don't match.

Hi there! I’m Mrs. B—a longtime educator with over 20 years of classroom experience, a STEM certificate from Notre Dame, and a big love for helping kids grow. I specialize in K–8 tutoring across reading, math, social studies, general academics, and coding. My goal is to make learning joyful, inclusive, and confidence-boosting for every student I work with. 💜 I love to …read, garden, paint, camp, and sing! I’m a big fan of animals, history, music and spending time with my family. I bring that same joy and curiosity into every tutoring session.

Hi, I’m Amanda, and I’ve spent several years teaching science and math at the middle and high school levels, in addition to teaching college science labs. I love helping students make sense of challenging concepts through hands-on learning, clear explanations, and real-world examples. My goal as a tutor is to build confidence, curiosity, and a genuine understanding of the material—so your student not only improves their grades but also enjoys the learning process.

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!
