I am a certified English teacher in the state of Georgia (English 6-12, ESOL, and Gifted endorsements) with a background in writing, journalism, and communications. I hold a Master’s degree in Telecommunications Systems Management and a Bachelor’s degree in Communication from Ohio University (3.9 GPA).
I have over 10 years of experience working with students from upper elementary through adults in both classroom and one-on-one settings. Across my teaching, tutoring, and community education work, I have supported dozens of students in improving reading comprehension, strengthening writing skills, and building confidence in their academic abilities. My experience includes essay writing, grammar, revision, reading analysis, and test preparation, including support for school-based and college-level work.
My approach is structured, practical, and student-centered. I break complex skills—such as essay development, organization, and grammar—into clear, manageable steps so students can make progress quickly and consistently. Students I work with typically see improved clarity in their writing, stronger organization, and increased independence in completing assignments. I focus not just on what to do, but on how to think through problems so students can apply these skills across subjects.
I also support executive function skills such as planning, time management, and task initiation, which are often key to academic success. In addition, I am trained in autism-informed coaching and take a neurodiversity-affirming approach. I work with students to identify how they learn best, reduce overwhelm, and build systems that support follow-through and confidence.
Whether working with a student who needs foundational support, a developing writer, or someone refining advanced skills, my goal is to provide clear instruction, practical strategies, and measurable progress in every session.
