About Vern
With over three decades in education, including serving as a teacher, coach, and school principal, I bring a high level of professionalism, consistency, and care to every tutoring session. I have worked with students across a wide range of abilities and understand how to create a structured, supportive environment where they can succeed.
Parents can expect clear communication, reliability, and a strong commitment to their child’s progress. I approach each session prepared, organized, and focused on measurable improvement. My background in school leadership has also given me extensive experience working with families, setting goals, and helping students stay accountable.
I maintain high standards while creating a positive and encouraging atmosphere. Students are treated with patience and respect, and I make it a priority to build their confidence along with their skills.
You can feel confident that your child is working with an experienced educator who is dedicated to their growth, both academically and personally.

I bring over 30 years of experience in education as a classroom teacher, coach, and school principal, and I understand that every student learns differently. My goal as a tutor is not just to help students get the right answers, but to build confidence, strengthen foundational skills, and develop a positive attitude toward math.
My Teaching Approach
I use a clear, structured, and patient approach to teaching elementary math. I break concepts down into simple, manageable steps and ensure students fully understand each part before moving on. I emphasize:
Strong number sense and fundamentals
Repetition with purpose (practice that builds confidence, not frustration)
Real-world examples to make math relatable
Encouragement and positive reinforcement
I also adjust my teaching style to match each student’s pace and learning style, whether they need extra support or are ready to be challenged.
What a Typical Lesson Looks Like
Review (5–10 minutes): Quick recap of previous concepts to reinforce learning
Instruction (15–20 minutes): Introduce or reteach a concept step-by-step
Guided Practice (15–20 minutes): Work through problems together
Independent Practice (10–15 minutes): Student applies skills with support as needed
Wrap-Up: Summary of progress and optional practice for continued improvement
What Sets Me Apart
Extensive experience working with elementary-aged students in both classroom and leadership roles
Proven ability to build trust and motivate students who may feel discouraged or behind
Focus on both skill development and confidence building
Strong communication with parents on progress and areas of focus
Calm, patient, and consistent teaching style that creates a positive learning environment
Who My Lessons Are For
Elementary students (Grades 2–6)
Students needing help with foundational math skills
Students who feel frustrated or lack confidence in math
Students who want to get ahead or strengthen core skills
Homeschool families or supplemental learning support
My goal is for each student to leave sessions feeling more confident, capable, and prepared. With the right support and approach, every child can succeed in math.
