I have several years of experience working in California public schools, primarily teaching science at the middle school and high school levels. I hold a bachelor’s degree and have completed formal teacher preparation coursework aligned with California credentialing requirements, including lesson planning, assessment, and instructional strategies for diverse learners. My strongest academic areas are biology and life sciences, including genetics, cellular processes, and data analysis, which allows me to tutor confidently in middle school science and high school biology.
My experience includes both classroom teaching and individualized academic support. I have taught students in grades 7 through 11 in full classroom settings and have worked as a substitute teacher across multiple districts, supporting students in general education and honors courses. These roles required adapting quickly to student needs, clarifying complex concepts, and providing one-on-one or small-group support during and outside of class to help students succeed.
As a tutor, I focus on building understanding rather than rote memorization. I break down challenging material into clear steps, use visuals and real-world examples, and tailor my approach to each student’s learning style. I aim to build confidence, strengthen academic skills, and help students become more independent and successful learners.
