As the Coordinator, she was in charge of all the reading interventions in the school and coached the teachers in reading strategies that would help bring their students to the next level.

Joanne has worked with students in Australia, London, Canada, Dominican Republic and kids from the West coast to the East Coast in the US. and has been booked solid several times throughout the years.  Joanne has now dedicated her life to teaching other people how to start an independent online tutoring business.

Joanne has created several programs to help other tutors start their online tutoring business.  Listen to this informational College Financial Aid and Career Navigation episode with Joanne Kaminski where we talk about the opportunities for teachers found outside of the classroom.
