About Lucretia
Hi there! I’m Ms. King, and I’ve been helping students in grades 2–6 learn math and science for over six years. I know these subjects can feel tricky sometimes—but with the right support, they can also be fun, exciting, and something you feel proud of. My job as your tutor is to help you feel confident, comfortable, and curious. I’ll break things down clearly, use visuals and hands-on strategies, and work at your pace—so you don’t feel rushed or overwhelmed. I’ve worked with all kinds of learners, including many students learning English, and I love finding the best way you learn. If you’ve ever thought “I’m just not a math or science person,” I’m here to help you change that. You can do this—and I’ll be right there to support you every step of the way!

I specialize in tutoring math and science for students in grades 2 through 6, with a strong focus on supporting English Learners and students who need concepts broken down in clear, accessible ways.
Teaching Methods and Techniques
My teaching approach is hands-on, visual, and student-centered. I use:
Visual aids, models, and real-life examples to build understanding
Step-by-step instruction with checks for understanding
Scaffolds like sentence frames and guided practice to support language development
Encouragement and positive feedback to build confidence
I adapt every lesson to meet the needs of the individual learner—whether they need extra time to master foundational skills or are ready to extend their learning.
Typical Lesson Structure
Quick Review – A warm-up or quick check on prior knowledge
Mini-Lesson – Clear explanation with visuals or manipulatives
Guided Practice – We solve problems together, discussing strategies
Independent Practice – Student works on their own with support as needed
Wrap-Up – Review key points, address any confusion, and set goals
What Sets Me Apart
With 6 years of classroom teaching experience, I bring both content expertise and the ability to connect with students who may struggle or feel behind. I’m especially skilled at helping English Learners and shy or reluctant students feel comfortable and capable. I focus not only on skills but on confidence, helping students believe they can do it—and then showing them how.
Who I Work With
I work with students in grades 2–6 who need support in math and science, especially those who benefit from:
Visual and step-by-step instruction
Support with academic language
A patient, encouraging teacher who explains things clearly
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
I highly recommend Lu as a tutor. They’re great at breaking things down in a way that actually makes sense, and they always make sure students feel comfortable asking questions. Lu is super patient, really knows their stuff, and does an awesome job adapting their teaching style to fit whoever they’re working with.
They’re also super reliable — always on time, well-prepared, and easy to communicate with. Students not only improve academically, but they also gain a lot of confidence after working with Lu.View more recommendations
