As a dedicated high school English teacher, I bring five years of experience guiding students from sixth through twelfth grade, cultivating a deep understanding of their evolving academic needs. My educational foundation includes a Bachelor's degree in English Education and a Master's in Curriculum and Instruction, complemented by a minor in Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. This comprehensive background not only enriches my subject matter expertise but also informs my ability to design effective, inclusive learning experiences. My classroom experience has provided a foundation in differentiating instruction and tailoring approaches to meet individual learning styles, whether I'm working with a large group or providing one on one support in various contexts, including after-school academic programs where I've helped students with a diverse range of subjects beyond English.
My passion lies in helping students unlock their full potential, particularly in critical areas that pave the way for future success. I've gained extensive experience in tutoring settings and have been a lead instructor for SAT Boot Camps, equipping students with the strategies and confidence needed to excel on the exam. Beyond standardized tests, I specialize in college essay writing, guiding students through every step of the process, from brainstorming compelling topics to crafting polished, authentic narratives that truly reflect their unique voices. I also recognize the financial considerations of higher education, which is why I provide comprehensive assistance with college scholarships, helping students identify opportunities and develop strong applications that highlight their achievements and aspirations. My methods are always student-centered, focusing on building strong foundational skills while also addressing the specific challenges each student faces to ensure they achieve their academic goals.
