engaging tutoring for K-6 children

Meet the Founder and President of Blooming Buds Tutoring

Welcome to Blooming Buds Tutoring! My name is Sommer Schrader. I am the founder and lead teacher of Blooming Buds Tutoring. I hold a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, I am licensed to teach in the state of Indiana, and I have 7 years of classroom teaching experience! During the 24 - 25 school year, I worked in the SPED department at my school while I grew my business. Then spent the entire summer of 2025 tutoring local 2nd - 6th grade clients in reading, writing, and math. I have 120+ hours of training in Science of Reading practices, 2+ years of implementing those practices with fidelity, and I am also earning my Masters of Science in Educational Leadership, I will graduate in Summer of 2026!

The last thing students want to do when they get home is more school. At Blooming Buds Tutoring, I use a customized, game-based approach to learning. I work closely with students and their families to build lessons around things they are interested in learning about, and activities they like to do, while also strengthening their skills. I find great joy in thinking outside the box and creating confident learners!
