Information from the Tutor: Junior High Math tutoring is available! I understand that math can be one of those things that parents and kids either “get” or “get ugly” over. I am here to help! Using virtual classroom technology, I can spend time helping students get a handle on the pieces that just don’t make sense. This can be done one-on-one or with a small group of students at a similar level. Resources needed will be determined on a case-by-case basis, as will cost. My tutoring supports students who are using resources from publishers such as Saxon, Math-U-See, etc.

Comments from Caitlin:
I have completed my Grade 8 Piano and Grade 1 Theory from the Royal Conservatory of Music. I also have my Masters in Library Science, which prepared me to work with all age groups. I’m looking to connect with homeschool parents who are interested in hosting piano lessons in their own home for their children and other homeschoolers. I believe music should be fun, and I will work with you so you can learn to play the songs you love.

Karen Bourdages
Junior High Science tutoring is available! I can help untangle the challenging pieces of your present curriculum (e.g. Apologia, A Beka, Sonlight, etc.) in a tutor role. I am also willing to put together “short courses” if the need and interest is there. Some potential subjects for short courses would include Chemistry, Experimentation in Science, Anatomy and Physiology, Cellular Biology to name a few possibilities. Short courses would require a small group of interested students, tutoring of course would be available one-on-one, both would utilize virtual classroom technology. Resources needed as well as cost will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Tutoring Location(s): Both online and onsite. Onsite locations include Bashaw, Ponoka, Camrose, Stettler, and Lacombe areas.
