CURRICULUM CONSULTING & DEVELOPMENT
I have over 10 years of experience building and developing curriculum, and as a Reading Specialist
I love to create reading, writing, and thematic units, which incorporate as many subjects as
possible on a single topic. If you are homeschooling and not sure if the depth and breadth of the
curriculum you are using is meeting all of your student’s needs,
contact me for a CURRICULUM CONSULTATION.
$75/hr
If you are noticing gaps in your child’s learning that your curriculum
is not addressing, you may need supplemental instruction and/or materials to help
close these learning gaps. If you would like professional help with this,
contact me for CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT.

SOL TEST PREP
There is a lot of pressure on students to pass state tests, especially those in high school who need a passing score to graduate. If you have a student who needs or wants individual or small group tutoring to decrease anxiety and improve their chances of passing an SOL, I would love to help! I am qualified to tutor grades K-12 in reading and writing and grades K-5 in math.
Contact me to schedule.
Price varies based on need and group size.

ABOUT ME
Hello! My name is Jennifer Jenkins, and I have been an educator for 19 years. Teaching is my passion, but working for 11 years in public school, I progressively felt that passion waning more and more with each passing year. I became disheartened and frustrated with overcrowding, poor administration, and lack of consequences for poor behavior, resources, teacher support, and time to give each student what they really needed. I have created an environment where my students enjoy learning, I enjoy teaching, and I have the flexibility to really meet the needs of every student that I serve. I want my students to feel safe, cared for, encouraged, supported, and that their needs are being met. Teaching in this smaller environment, I am able to get to know my students and their families better and meet their needs in a more effective way.
