MyTutorNana

Chris MacCormack is a retired teacher who likes to stay busy, connected and enjoys teaching. For the past four years she managed a team of volunteer teachers teaching Afghan refugees here in Bradenton. It was so rewarding to see children master language and math skills with fun hand-on activities that she decided to offer Bradenton young students the same fun approach.. Chris uses real objects such as blocks, rods, and pizza slices, plus ample personal attention to help them overcome hurdles to mastering math concepts. My Tutor Nana took off in 2023 and in 2025 was named the Best Tutoring Service in Bradenton by Google. Chris is also willing to discuss possibilities for home school education in West Bradenton.

Singapore Math

Singapore Math has had great success worldwide with its approach for helping children understand the concepts of math instead of memorizing rules and facts. Chris will use this textbook series and all the manipulatives in her small group Math Labs for grades 3-6. She wants children to enjoy learning and feel successful.

Tutoring Options

Private tutoring at your W. Bradenton home is available but Chris would prefer to form small group classes at her home or yours for 2-4 students at a similar level to add to the fun and greatly reduce the cost. Parents are welcome to stay or run errands. Unfortunately, I am not interested in long commutes.

Private hour $25 ; Small group $120 per student for 8 weeks ( 1 hr per week) We can get started with a free consultation and skills assessment.

Hope to hear from you soon. Contact me at mytutornana@gmail.com

My grandson age 11 is having problems with math and reading. He sees Chris on Saturdays at 9 am for 90 minutes. In a month I see a great change in knowledge and attitude I recommend that anyone who has a child in his age bracket try to use her services. Ray M. .

Finally a united group that will be the host our local Scottish Highland Games!! Many of us are looking forward to the inaugural event that will be held on Saturday Feb 10th at the Manatee County Fairgrounds in Palmetto FL. A much larger venue than the Sarasota Fairgrounds!! I understand there will be a pipe band competition and a challenge between the Manatee County Sheriff's office and the EMT's in the actual Highland Games competition. See you in February!!

Once a PACE girl, always a PACE girl. Being part of PACE Center for Girls' first graduating class was transformative. PACE provided unwavering support during challenging times, boosting my confidence and helping me discover my true potential. The staff's personalized attention and encouragement were instrumental in overcoming obstacles and achieving academic success. PACE is more than an institution; it's a caring community that goes beyond academics. Thank you, PACE Center for Girls, for making a profound difference in my life.
