I'd love to see if I am a good fit to be your child’s tutor! My love of learning, teaching, reading, and working with children is what led me to pursue a career in education. I earned my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education (K-8) and English as a Second Language at UW-Madison. I furthered my passion and expertise in literacy when I received my master's as a certified Reading Specialist (K-12) at Michigan State University. Earning degrees at two universities that hold spots in the top 3 elementary education preparation programs equipped me to be a highly-skilled, culturally and linguistically responsive educator. I have held many roles including a classroom teacher, substitute teacher, tutor, and camp coordinator. I am currently a licensed teacher in the state of Michigan.

I am certified to teach all subjects K-8 and have a variety of experiences. My areas of specialty are as a Reading Specialist (K-12) and English as a Second Language teacher. I have been a virtual tutor and teacher in the past. I take great measures to be up-to-date with technology since it is a major component of online tutoring. My tutoring can be an extension of what your child is learning in school or completely separate. I am happy to make learning customized to your child based on whatever skills you desire using evidence-based practices to help them grow.

If you select me as your child’s tutor, I will learn their interests, strengths, and areas of growth. A key to unlocking learning is connection. I take time to get to know my students to integrate their interests and strengths into learning. I do this through a few helpful assessments and talking with you and your child. If there are any specific learning styles, resource types, or skills you would prefer, I am happy to incorporate them. Learning must be meaningful and purposeful to have maximum impact. My hope is to see your child grow, increase their confidence, and spark joy in learning. Please contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson! Happy learning!
