ABOUT THIS TUTOR
Craig Watkinson is in his second decade as a full time California educator, specializing in working with students with learning differences. He is a fully credentialed, Multi-Subject California Educator. He taught at the renowned Westmark School in Encino for 7 years. Before that, he worked in over a dozen elementary and middle school classrooms in both the LAUSD and Burbank USD.
Mr. Watkinson aims to help children with varying skill levels and educational needs. “There is only so much help that even the best teacher can give in a full classroom environment. Students with learning differences — all students, really— benefit immeasurably from having the opportunity to engage in one-on-one sessions with someone experienced in multiple methods and modalities of teaching. Very simply, I keep working with the student until they are fully engaged, confident, and successful. And I never give up.”
Mr. Watkinson graduated Cum Laude from the ITEP (Integrated Teacher Education Program) at California State University at Northridge with a GPA of 3.98. He achieved the Academic Honor Roll and Dean’s List for every semester of his enrollment. He attained a Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Arts – Education and completed a concentration in creative writing. He is also a published author, most recently of the contemporary fiction novel, Taut. He is currently working on his Masters Degree in Educational Administration. —Craig Watkinson, Watkinson Tutoring
