I am a newly retired 20-year public high school science teacher with a passion for making Chemistry and Physical Science accessible and stress-free for all students. I specialize in helping students who feel overwhelmed or frustrated in General Chemistry, Honors Chemistry, Algebra I, Beginning Physics, and PLTW Principles of Engineering (POE). With my background in both science and special education, I excel at breaking down complex topics into clear, relatable steps. Whether a student needs help building strong foundational skills, catching up, or gaining confidence before a big test or project, I provide patient, individualized support. My background includes:
20 years teaching high school Chemistry, 5 years teaching high school Physics, and 10 years teaching PLTW Engineering at a California Title I public school.
B.A. in Chemistry & Biology from Pomona College
Master’s degree in Teaching Chemistry
Extensive experience working successfully with students who have learning differences, anxiety, or developmental disabilities.
I am now offering a limited number of online tutoring sessions. My goal is simple: help students truly understand the material, reduce stress, and rebuild their confidence in STEM. I look forward to helping your student succeed!
