Hi! I graduated magna cum laude with twonbachelor's degrees in both Elementary Education and Psychology. I also hold a master's degree in Elementary Education. I taught all core subjects of fourth grade for two years. During that time, I have had the opportunity to tutor many students. I have assisted my students with completing homework assignments and helped prepare them for upcoming assignments. I am currently teaching Kindergarten and absolutely love it! The joy they have when they start to learn how to read is so exciting!

I love motivating my students not to give up, and I am even more excited when I see their improvement.

I have weekly lesson plans that I create, and I try to model as often as possible.

It is important to me as a tutor not only to help improve your student's grades, but to build a relationship with them to be able to inspire them to learn. I am always open to suggestions and feedback provided by parents. I am available for any questions, and look forward to working with you!

Approved Subjects

Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

I am an Elementary Education specialist with a Tier 1 Leadership Certificate and over 10 years of classroom experience teaching grades K–5. As a current second-grade teacher, I consistently differentiate instruction and carefully scaffold lessons so every student can succeed. I build strong foundations in reading, math, writing, and content areas while meeting individual needs with patience and structure. My approach helps students grow confidently across the elementary years.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

hold a specialist degree in Elementary Education and a Tier 1 Leadership Certificate, with over 10 years of classroom teaching experience across grades K–5. As a current second-grade teacher, I specialize in building strong number sense, place value, addition/subtraction fluency, and early multiplication skills through hands-on, differentiated instruction. I am skilled at identifying gaps, scaffolding concepts, and making math engaging and accessible for all learners. Students leave my sessions more confident and better prepared for grade-level expectations.
Phonics

Phonics

In my second-grade classroom, I use the Fundations program to deliver systematic, explicit phonics instruction. I carefully scaffold letter-sound relationships, blending, segmenting, and decoding while differentiating to meet each student’s needs. Lessons are consistent and structured so students build strong foundational skills at their own pace. This approach helps struggling and emerging readers grow into confident, independent readers.
Reading

Reading

With a specialist degree in Elementary Education and more than a decade of teaching K–5 students, I have extensive experience developing strong readers. I currently teach second grade and focus on phonics, fluency, comprehension strategies, and vocabulary growth. I use research-based methods to diagnose reading levels and create targeted lessons that help struggling and advanced readers alike. My goal is to foster a lifelong love of reading while closing skill gaps quickly and effectively.
