As a dedicated educator with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Alabama A&M University and a state teaching certification, I bring over 10 years of experience fostering academic growth in young learners. My journey began as a daycare teacher and tutor while completing my degree, where I discovered my passion for helping students unlock their potential. For 10 years, I worked as both a second, third and fourth grade classroom teacher and a private tutor, specializing in mathematics, reading comprehension, and writing skills for students ages 6-10. In the classroom, I've developed individualized learning plans for diverse learners, while my one-on-one tutoring experience has allowed me to refine my approach to each student's unique needs. I employ a blend of multisensory learning techniques, incorporating manipulatives, visual aids, and interactive technology to make learning engaging and accessible. My methods emphasize building confidence alongside competence – I believe in celebrating small victories while gradually increasing challenges to maintain steady progress. Students in my care have consistently shown improvement in both academic performance and enthusiasm for learning, with many advancing multiple grade levels in reading comprehension within a single academic year. I prioritize regular communication with parents and classroom teachers to ensure our tutoring goals align with both curriculum standards and individual student needs.
