Hello! I'm a certified teacher in Texas and Tennessee with over 15 years of experience helping students succeed on academic exams like the SAT, GED, and ISEE.

My certifications include Generalist (EC–8), English Language Arts and Reading (4–8), and English Language Learning (K–12).

My favorite job was being a campus College and Career Readiness Coordinator at a middle school where I helped students gain all the academic and social skills they would need to succeed in college and beyond.

My approach to education is student-centered, engaging, and data-driven. I use multimedia resources and interactive activities to make material easier to understand and retain. I take pride in creating a learning environment where every student feels safe to ask questions, make mistakes, and grow. You can expect expert knowledge, professional presentation, and proven results. Let me know how I can be helpful!

Very Knowledgeable and incorrigible

Erin has been teaching me for several months now, her tutelage for my GED math has been amazing, she goes at my pace and she makes sure, I understand everything and if I don't understand in the first succession we will go over it in the next. She is my first and official tutor, I would recommend her to anyone because she is just great. She only does online but either way she has made a huge difference in my understanding in math
