As a dedicated educator with a Master’s in Teaching and a Counseling Credential, I bring over a decade of experience helping students succeed academically and personally. Recognized as Teacher of the Year and Staff of the Year, I have served as a Special Education Teacher and Department Chair, supporting diverse learners and guiding them toward both immediate academic goals and long-term success.

I specialize in science subjects including chemistry, biology, and general science, as well as English writing, essay development, and literacy skills. Beyond subject mastery, I focus on equipping students with essential executive functioning strategies—including organization, time management, and planning—that empower them to take control of their learning. By combining content knowledge with these critical skills, I help students not only improve grades but also build independence and confidence.

My teaching style is student-centered, supportive, and results-driven. I adapt instruction to meet each learner’s unique strengths and challenges, using clear explanations, engaging methods, and practical strategies. Whether it’s breaking down a complex science concept, structuring a strong essay, or creating a study plan that works, I provide tools that students can apply across all areas of school and life. I am committed to making learning both effective and inspiring—helping students achieve success today while preparing them for tomorrow.

Hi! I’d be happy to help your 9th grader with her Biology Honors class. I can work with her to review key concepts, reinforce understanding, and practice challenging problems to help her succeed and feel confident in the material. We can tailor sessions to her pace and focus on areas where she needs the most support.
