I have been working with children for the past 10 years in many different settings including my own classroom, after school, and one-on-one tutoring. My experience and background not only as an educator but also as a mother has taught me that with patience and understanding any child can learn given the necessary tools and support. I have extensive experience with children that have developmental disabilities, including the autism spectrum. I specialize in test prep tutoring and work with all elementary age and middle school students. I am also experienced in the Common Core curriculum standards. I am certain that your child will benefit from my services and develop the skills required to become a more independent, confident student. I hope to hear from you and begin working toward success with your child.

I am qualified to tutor ADD/ADHD students because I am currently a special education teacher that has experience with all learning disabilities.

Organization and focus are key to success.
