I am a highly dedicated and certified science educator with over 23 years of classroom experience, committed to helping every student unlock their potential in science. I have spent my years specializing in High School Biology, including rigorous units on Genetics, Environmental Science, and Earth Systems. As a certified and tenured teacher, I have achieved Highly Qualified status in both Pennsylvania and Maryland. I am passionate about providing the targeted academic support necessary for students to master complex science concepts and confidently succeed on state assessments.

What truly sets my approach apart is my extensive background in special education. I hold a Master's Degree in Special Education and dedicated a decade of my career working exclusively in the field, including at specialized institutions like the School for the Blind and an Alternative School. This depth of experience allows me to expertly tailor instruction and learning strategies for all students. I have a proven track record of successfully instructing students across the entire spectrum, from those requiring highly individualized special education support to those in Honors-level courses.

My mission is to cultivate confidence and competence in every student I tutor. I draw on my two decades of real-world classroom experience to transform challenging material into clear, understandable lessons. I love my job and the opportunity to help students achieve their goals every day. I welcome the opportunity to work with your family and demonstrate how specialized, personalized instruction can lead to lasting academic success in science.
