Marissa Taylor (She/Her)
Hi!! I’m Marissa! I’m currently completing social work as a second degree at Memorial University, while previously completing a psychology honours degree at Grenfell Campus! I will be focused on tutoring a variety of subjects at the primary/elementary level, but I’m also here to help with any Psychology, English or any other electives at the post-secondary level! For some students school work can become overwhelming, and I hope to help alleviate some of that stress by providing a safe and welcoming environment to learn in a way that works best for the student. Everyone has different strengths, and it’s important to find ways to enhance those by finding a path that will allow the student to be the most successful. Outside of tutoring you’ll find me getting some school work done, painting crafts for my small business or scurrying off to one of my other student jobs

Hi l’m Kaily! I’m a second year student at Memorial University doing a Bachelor of Arts degree. I am originally from Colliers Newfoundland where I went to high school and graduated with honours. I am interested in math and science especially, I have a background in tutoring and I believe in using various approaches to learning in order to find each child’s best learning strategies. In my free time I enjoy playing volleyball, hanging out with friends and reading. I’m super excited to meet and connect with students and aid them in their learning journey at Educo!
