I hold a Bachelor’s degree and a California Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, which qualifies me to teach all core subjects in K–6 classrooms. I am also pursuing a Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) degree at San José State University, working toward a California Teacher Librarian Credential. My graduate coursework includes studies in information literacy instruction, digital resources, and educational technology integration.
I have over five years of teaching experience, primarily with 4th and 5th grade students at both private and public schools. In these roles, I have taught English Language Arts, mathematics, science, and social studies in a classroom setting, focusing on standards-based instruction and differentiated learning. My methods emphasize inquiry-based learning, scaffolding, and the use of formative assessments to guide instruction.
In addition to classroom teaching, I have tutored students one-on-one and in small groups in reading comprehension, writing, and math fluency. I incorporate a growth mindset approach, encouraging students to reflect on their learning progress and build confidence through achievable goals. I work with students from diverse backgrounds, typically ranging from ages 9 to 12. I strive to make lessons engaging by connecting academic concepts to real-world examples, and I frequently integrate technology and multimedia tools to support different learning styles.
