Welcome! I'm Dr. Damita, and I'm passionate about helping students discover their potential and achieve their educational goals. With more than 25 years of tutoring experience, I have worked with elementary, middle school, high school, college, and adult learners from diverse backgrounds. My mission is to help every student build confidence, master new skills, and develop a lifelong love of learning. I believe education has the power to transform lives, open doors, and create opportunities, and I am committed to helping every student reach their full potential.

My experience extends beyond the classroom. I have worked in the corrections field, supporting individuals on probation through education, goal setting, and personal development. I also have extensive experience working with students with disabilities and creating individualized learning strategies that meet each student's unique needs. Supporting neurodiverse learners is especially meaningful to me as a person and a parent with a child with autism. This personal and professional experience has strengthened my patience, empathy, flexibility, and ability to connect with students from all walks of life. I have earned multiple degrees and professional certifications, including credentials as a Certified Tutor and a Career Development Facilitator, and my doctoral degree reflects my lifelong commitment to education and continuous learning.

Every student learns differently, which is why I tailor each tutoring session to fit the individual. I combine traditional teaching methods with creative strategies, technology, and real-world applications to make learning engaging and effective. Whether you need help with coursework, study skills, test preparation, college success, career development, or building academic confidence, I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals. I look forward to partnering with you on your educational journey and celebrating your success every step of the way. Let's Make Education a Priority and Not an Option!

Great teacher!

Ms. Damita is very helpful and patient with my two homeschoolers. She’s given great advice and tips that my children use while studying. She’s great at what she does. I’m glad I choose her.

Professional, caring, and patient tutor

Damita has taught me how to use Duo and Zoom. Damita is very good at keeping me relaxed and calm; she is extremely patient with me. Our first tutoring session it took me about ten minutes to just learn how to focus my cellular phone on my computer screen. I learned about hosting/setting up a meeting, chat, and how to send a message. I've learned the different icons and how to add text and do funny things with expressions. I believe I need two or three tutors, so I don't wear out the other. I know I am a hand full. I will get there in my timing and pace. Thanks Damita.

Very knowledgeable, creative and caring tutor.

Damita has taught my daughter to read, speak and count. Best of all, she introduced her to her son and is planing to have my girl talk to him. It is great to meet a new friend.
