Your first hour with any tutor is always 100% refundable!

I provide one-on-one tutoring geared towards each student’s primary school curriculum. When students gain confidence in the material and assignments they are working on in school, they can achieve their highest academic potential and excel in their future studies. I provide a foundation to teach students how to learn while helping boost their grades for immediate results while they become confident and positive.

I offer subject-specific tutoring for students at all levels. Students may start to get ahead with some extra help outside the classroom, or to catch up with material when they’ve fallen behind. I use multiple creative and personal techniques to empower their style. Sometimes we have to repeat what you have learned to be solid with the information and move forward. I prepare for the unexpected. My car is a school room for the many possibilities that might need to be studied. My style is academic with a personal and positive response for each student, tailor made for you. I want you to be the best you can and it will happen. I know! I bring books, supplies, tools for learning that will be customized to your student to make the grade and move forward with success.

Assistance with organizational and study skills is always incorporated into every session.

Keeping your first language is so important and empowers you with bilingual abilities in life. I have the books and printed materials for all ages to learn English with success.

Songwriting

I am a creative, passionate and articulate woman about all of life. I believe that everything and everyone has something about them to say...I find the words that come alive and can be touched, felt and bring inspiration to the thoughts you might be thinking or feeling. I can show you how to bring the best of you "your voice," into music and people will be speaking and singing your lyrics. I have been writing since I was a young girl in Chicago and as I looked up above me, the skyline of the city... Read More
