OFFERINGS FOR fall 2024

I help home school and traditional school students with math, reading, writing, and core subjects. I have over a decade of experience working with students. One of my “special superpowers” is helping to transform a student’s antagonistic relationship with school work into a positive one! For more info, please reach out: jessicawilbert@gmail.com or 804-380-0084.

My offerings range from in-person to hybrid to fully virtual. In-person offerings are very limited, but I have successfully built many positive relationships with students with a hybrid model of some in-person time to establish rapport, plus some virtual time to minimize cost and maximize time. If you are in San Diego or Orange County and are looking for in-person/hybrid sessions, please reach out to discuss your needs and scheduling on a case-by-case basis.

• As a former classroom teacher, I offer one-on-one assistance with existing school work, teach on topics students may struggle with, and/or bring additional and customized materials for deeper practice in core subjects. I also help facilitate homeschool curriculum for homeschoolers. I differentiate instruction for different levels, learning styles/paces, and IEP learners.

• Math Magic! I can assist students struggling with math, from middle school through Algebra 1 and Geometry. Many students struggling with math need additional reinforcement with simple-to-understand review of concepts/processes & steps/formulas, extra practice to prepare for tests, or extra time spent on homework. Slowing things down and helping to remove the stress around math boosts skills and confidence!

• I build strong rapport with students and provide a caring, structured, one-on-one adult relationship. (Parents sometimes need a “good cop” so they don’t have to play “bad cop” when it comes to school work!)

• I serve middle school and high school ages for math, ELA and additional core subjects.

• I check in frequently with parents, detailing what the student has been working on, struggling with, or excelling in, with recommendations for any additional supports or strategies going forward.

• My tutoring rates are $60/hr (packages of 10 are available with a discount). Additional travel fees may apply. Please reach out at 804-380-0084 or jessicawilbert@gmail.com to chat about your family’s needs.

• Licensed (MA) & insured.

BEYOND HARD SKILLS: TEACHING WITH PRESENCE

The greatest lesson I’ve learned as a teacher is that we teach with our presence. Beyond the content of what we teach, how we show up for others—helping them feel seen and heard, helping them gain confidence—is the thing that leaves the greatest and most lasting impact. In my own feedback from students, my proudest accomplishment is when time and again I hear how I have helped students become more confident as learners and individuals.
