MEXICO:
Private Family Tutor - Kindergarten to Middle School
Malachi, Jeremiah & Judah
In Winter 2016/2017, I was hired by an Australian family of 6, as their Private family tutor in Mexico for 4 months. Malachi, Jeremiah, and Judah, (ages 5-12) needed daily instruction with their lessons. The older boys (Malachi & Jeremiah) focused on Math & Science. Judah, was starting kindergarten and his focus was on the ABC's, phonics, and reading.
Our sessions took place in the mornings Monday thru Thursday. Always outdoors, and many times poolside or at the beach. On Thursdays, we did hands-on experiments that reviewed what science lesson we were covering. The boys had to explain what was happening to all of us (and sometimes the 'Padres'.) We had so much fun!!! To get the boys excited for Math and learning times tables, we slowly created our own board game called "Multiple-cities", which was like a combo of Battleship, Monopoly, and Sim City. Maybe one day, I'll try to remember the rules and create the game to market. To see their learning experiences brought to life, check out their videos on the pages: 'Kitchen Science' & 'Judah's Reading Journey'. *Parents have given permission to post photos/videos of their children* |
