Welcome to the WakeTutors.com Community Blog!

I am truly excited about the ability to start the WakeTutors.com educational community. After taking a couple years off from teaching, I wanted to create a community of educators and parents that can share their experiences, concerns, and best practices for making Wake County public school students successful. This blog is intended for any independently contracted tutor of WakeTutors.com or parents in Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Morrisville, Wake Forest, Durham, Chapel Hill, Carrboro, Clayton, Knightdale, Holly Springs, Garner, or any other Triangle-area city.

This blog is not intended to discuss Waketutors.com business matters. Any comments or questions about business matters should be directed to that website (www.waketutors.com) or to me personally. However, as a parent, if there is something you want to discuss related to effective tutoring methods (i.e. something a tutor did in a tutoring session that was effective for your child), feel free to post that if you feel it will be helpful to parents and other tutors! A math tutor may post a creative method for teaching multiplication facts (which you can also post to articles on the website). Do you have information you want to provide about school assignments? Do you want to discuss possible ways to improve communication with your child's teacher? This is your forum! Feel free to post comments and feedback to what others say as well.

We do want to keep discussions on how to improve the educational experiences of the children in our community in a positive and supportive tone.

Thanks for being a part of our community!
