I graduated from Aurora University with a degree in Elementary Education and went on to earn my master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have been teaching for 7 years and have 10 years of experience working in schools through various programs, including homework help and academic support. My experience includes working with elementary-aged students in classroom settings as well as providing additional support to students who need extra help understanding concepts, building skills, and gaining confidence.
I specialize in elementary math and phonics and reading instruction. I especially love math and enjoy finding ways to make challenging concepts easier to understand through hands-on activities, clear explanations, practice, and real-world examples. In reading, I focus on building strong foundational skills through phonics, decoding, fluency, and comprehension. My teaching approach is patient, encouraging, and tailored to each student’s individual learning needs. I work to identify where a student may be struggling, break skills down into manageable steps, and provide meaningful practice so they can experience success.
I am passionate about helping students reach their full potential and believe that every child can grow with the right support, instruction, and encouragement. My goal as a tutor is not only to help students improve academically but also to build their confidence, independence, and love of learning.
