I quickly assess your needs, keep you engaged, and elevate your self-esteem. Your progress and learning are my top priorities.

I have a BFA and a BS, a teaching license, and a Masters in Education. In addition I am a certified teacher of grades K-12 and have more than two decades of experience as a college professor. Upon retiring from teaching college I became an indie publisher. My first book is a novel that won an international writing award and my second book won a position as one of the Top 100 Indie Published books of 2016. Since then I have been named one of the Top 50 Writers You Should Be Reading two years in a row by the Author's Show. My most recent book won International Best-selling status on Amazon!

I specialize in helping you to improve cognizance in reading and inspire creativity and expression in your communication and writing.

In addition I am a volunteer mentor for my local Toastmasters club in public speaking and coach speakers on how to craft engaging and memorable presentations.

I easily assess the needs of my students and keep them engaged while instilling a desire to improve their skills. Your progress and joy in learning are my top priorities. It is with pleasure that I receive your inquiries and it is an honor to offer my services to you as a tutor. I look forward to hearing from you and scheduling our first session.

Knowledgeable, experienced, engaging, fun

Amy is very knowledgeable and experienced! She communicated in a personable way and made the experience comfortable. This lesson with Amy raised my confidence by equipping me with several tools for speaking with people. I came away feeling informed, challenged, and empowered. It was a pleasure to work with you, Amy! Thank you!
