As a certified English educator with a Bachelor of Science in English Education from the University of Georgia and a California Single Subject Teaching Credential (Clear), I bring over five years of classroom teaching experience to my tutoring sessions. I’ve taught middle school English in both public and private school settings, including Hand Middle School in South Carolina and Army and Navy Academy in California. My focus has always been helping students strengthen their reading comprehension, written expression, and critical thinking—skills that are essential not only for school success but for life.
In the classroom, I designed lesson plans aligned with state standards, scaffolded content across grade levels, and incorporated diverse teaching methods to support a range of learning styles. I’ve created long-term educational roadmaps, led cross-functional teams for students needing additional support, and used data to tailor personalized learning plans. Whether working one-on-one or in group settings, my approach is rooted in patience, adaptability, and encouragement. I strive to create a supportive environment where students feel empowered to take risks, ask questions, and grow in confidence.
My tutoring sessions are structured yet flexible. I begin by identifying the student’s specific needs and learning style, then build customized sessions that combine skill-building, practice, and real-world application. With a passion for literacy and language, I specialize in grammar, essay writing, literary analysis, and test preparation for middle schoolers. I look forward to helping your student grow into a confident and capable communicator.
