My Name
Vannesa Martinez, founder of
Back2Basics Learning Company.
My Mission
To change my students' mindsets about themselves and what they can achieve in school and in life.
My Goal
To help my students become independent, confident, self-sufficient, self-driven,
mindful humans.
🏫My Experience
🎖️I am a teacher (25 years) who decided to leave the classroom to fill in gaps and teach my students how to be successful in school.
🎖️I have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and a Master's Degree in Reading Education from Florida International University.
🎖️I have worked with ADD, ADHD, Autistic, Dyslexic, OHI, Physically Disabled, and Processing Delayed students.
🎖️I have also worked with ESOL and hearing impaired students.
🎖️I adapt to what my students and their families need and I have no problem advocating for them in the classroom or in the conference room.
❤️🔥My Passion
🥰Teaching reading (reading with a purpose)
🥰Teaching writing (writing with a purpose)
👋🏼My Exit Out of the Educational Institution
🏃🏼♂️➡️I was tired of seeing my students start the school year already behind.
💔I saw anxiety and depression every year and it never got better.
📈As I began to implement explicit teaching to fill learning gaps, I saw a correlation between behavior, self-esteem, and grades.
☺️The more gaps they filled, the better their grades got which elevated their self-esteem.
😖The problem was that administration did not understand what I was doing.
😒They only saw that I wasn't in line with the other ELA teacher.
😮That's all they cared about.
🤯They didn't care that I was changing lives through my work.
😢They didn't care that I truly taught each child how they needed to be taught.
😵They didn't care that kids were enjoying English, that they were reading and writing, that they were happy.
💔I couldn't NOT CARE, so I left.
👉🏼The Path Forward
👍🏼I understood my passion, that was easy.
🤔But what was my purpose now that I left the classroom?
🙏🏼I had prayed to be a stay at home mom.
🙏🏼I had prayed to be able to teach the way I wanted to.
🙏🏼I had prayed that I would be able to teach those children who actually wanted me as their teacher.
💗God answered and delivered on every single prayer.
Then, he put me to work. 😅💻📞🏃🏼♂️➡️
😯I had to learn how to recreate what I did in my classroom, online.
👉🏼A New Identity
I am now a ✨Student Success Coach✨ and digital course creator for my online course platform.
I teach my students HOW to be successful.
😍Mindset #1
📝Skills #2
🏆Success #3
👉🏼My Philosophy
That right there changes the game, entirely.
EVERY CHILD HAS THE ABILITY TO LEARN.
Every Child Has the Right to be Happy.
Learning + Success = Happy
Thanks to 💻 digital courses, I can teach the way I want to and
my students can learn in their own way, on their own time, and at their own pace.
No hassle. No anxiety. No stress.
Just learning how to be a SUCCESS STORY.✨
Yes, there is a difference.
Tutoring is good for short-term gains.
✅Review for a test
✅Tricky Science concept
✅Writing a lab report
✅Homework help
Things like that.
Teaching is for long-term gains.
✅Learn how to annotate a text
✅Learn how to take notes
✅Learn how to write an essay
✅Learn how to take a test
Teaching is helping students acquire skills that are going to make them successful.
✨This takes a little longer.
We are talking about cultivating skills vs. completing assignments.
HOW DOES ONE CULTIVATE SKILLS?
GOAL #1 MASTERY
Repetition is key and when you have live tutoring, that means more time, more money, and the progress is VERY slow.
⏳It doesn't move the needle fast enough to transform my students' lives.
✨Digital courses offer my students the ability to rewatch lessons for mastery.
GOAL #2 SPEED
My students all learn at different rates. ⏩1X ⏩⏩ 5X ⏩⏩⏩10X
🗻We all climb the mountain, but some will climb faster and others will start slowly and then get faster.
🧗🏼Yet others will climb slowly and steadily all the way to the top.
✨Digital courses allow my students to acquire, learn, and master the skills for success at their own pace.
GOAL #3 CONVENIENCE
🎯If it's not easy, they won't do it.
➡️Easy to access.
➡️Easy to use.
➡️Easy to follow along.
➡️Easy to watch from anywhere at anytime.
✨Digital courses allow my students to have access to my teaching 24/7. Anytime. Anywhere.
GOAL #4 SUPPORT
👩🏼💻Some of my students just like the virtual Mrs. Martinez.
👩🏼🏫The one who teaches them what they need to know and doesn't ask any questions.
Some of my students need the LIVE version of Mrs. Martinez. 💁🏻♀️
They need more of my heart.💗
✅I coach them through problems.
✅I help them help themselves.
✅I work on their independence.
✅I work on their confidence.
✅I teach them how to be life-long learners.
✅I teach them how to be successful.
✨Digital courses teach the skills, they also give my students a button to click on to access me directly, so we can work together.
The Bottom Line
❣️I want the BEST for all of my students: past, present, and future.
❣️I work hard to give them the BEST of me.
❣️Children's lives are way to precious and if they feel defeated, if they change suddenly, if they are unmotivated, or acting out, there's something missing.
❣️I fill gaps.
❣️Gaps in mindset.
❣️Gaps in the skills they should have mastered.
❣️Gaps in their critical thinking / problem solving.
❣️Don't hesitate to call me if you have any questions or schedule a Google Meet Virtual Conference.
