Let an experienced tutor help your child be their best.

Tutor

Tara Star

Hi, welcome! My name is Tara Star, and I’m an experienced tutor who works with students kindergarten through 8th grade.

I teach my students based on their needs and treat each student like an individual: no one-size-fits-all lesson plans. I love getting to know my students and helping them accomplish their goals in a way that makes sense for them. I’ll work with you to create curriculum that fits you and your child’s unique needs and circumstances. Let’s create a game plan together!

I have a Bachelor’s degree from the University of California, Irvine in History, and have completed a year of postgraduate study in Primary School Education. Education is my passion, but I also enjoy singing, writing songs, and creating visual art, all of which I love to use while teaching.

Tutoring that Meets Kids at Their Level

The learning environment has changed and it has left many kids feeling disconnected and unsteady. A tutor can be a calming influence, someone who can help them tackle new challenges and make sure they don’t fall behind.

I meet with my students in person in South Orange County and also meet with students on Zoom from all over California. I have developed strategies to develop relationships with my students, keep them focused and make our time truly productive, even in an online environment.

Tutoring in Elementary
School Subjects

I tutor students in the following subjects:

Personalized Educational Guidance & Help

If you feel your child needs “bridging” from one grade to the next, supplemental work, or is trying to catch up with a particular subject, I provide custom lesson plans for students according to their unique needs.
During the school year, I also provide
help with assigned schoolwork.
