I am currently a junior at James Madison University majoring in Health Services Administration with double minors in Human Resources and Legal Studies. My academic background has strengthened my skills in communication, organization, and problem solving, which directly influence how I tutor students. Through my coursework and applied experiences, I have learned how to explain complex material clearly and adapt my approach to fit different learning styles. I prioritize preparation and consistency in every session so students feel supported, capable, and confident in their abilities.

I have several years of experience working with students across a wide range of ages, abilities, and learning environments. I currently serve as a teaching assistant for an introductory university-level health course, where I help students review content, prepare for exams, and develop effective study strategies. In addition, I mentor middle and high school students through the Valley Scholars Program, providing academic support, goal setting guidance, and confidence-building in both one-on-one and small group settings. I have also provided private tutoring both virtually and in person, including working with children who have learning disabilities. These experiences have strengthened my patience, flexibility, and ability to adjust instruction to meet each student’s individual needs.

My tutoring approach is supportive, structured, and highly individualized. I focus on breaking material into manageable steps, reinforcing understanding through examples, and helping students learn how to think through problems independently rather than relying on memorization. I emphasize building confidence, organization, and long-term academic skills alongside subject mastery. My goal is to create a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and taking ownership of their learning.

I specialize in elementary math instruction for students in grades K–6, focusing on building strong foundational skills and confidence in math. I help students master core concepts such as number sense, basic operations, fractions, problem solving, and math vocabulary. I have experience supporting students with different learning needs and use clear, step-by-step instructions with hands-on strategies. Each session is tailored to the student’s learning style and academic goals to promote long-term success.

I have experience tutoring geography across a range of ages, helping students understand both physical and human geography concepts. I support students with map skills, spatial awareness, regions, and geographic vocabulary to strengthen overall comprehension. Through one-on-one and virtual tutoring, I tailor lessons to each student’s learning style, including using visual aids and real-world examples. I have also worked with students who have learning disabilities, adapting instruction to improve retention and confidence.

I specialize in reading comprehension and critical analysis, helping students strengthen their ability to understand, interpret, and evaluate written texts across academic subjects. I have experience tutoring students of varying ages and skill levels, including those who struggle with comprehension, test-based reading questions, and written responses. My approach focuses on active reading strategies, identifying main ideas, recognizing author intent, and using textual evidence with confidence. I tailor each session to the student’s goals, whether improving classroom performance, preparing for exams, or building overall reading confidence.

I specialize in teaching study skills and executive functioning strategies that help students become more organized, confident, and independent learners. I work with students across grade levels to improve time management, task initiation, note-taking, test preparation, and organization. I have experience supporting students with learning differences and focus on practical, research-based strategies that can be applied immediately in school. My approach is individualized and goal-oriented, helping students build skills they can use long-term.

As a teaching assistant and private tutor, I support students in understanding word meanings, context clues, and proper usage to improve reading comprehension and written expression. I have also worked with students who have learning disabilities, using structured, multi-sensory strategies to support retention and confidence. My approach emphasizes practical application, repetition, and personalized techniques to help students use new vocabulary independently.
