I am a Philly-based history teacher with certifications in Social Studies, ELA, ESL, and the evidence-based Orton-Gillingham approach to literacy. I am a graduate of Swarthmore College and have 7+ years of teaching and tutoring experience. My primary goal as a tutor is to meet you where you are build your academic confidence: by giving you the tools to succeed, and by supporting you in seeing yourself as successful, there is no limit to what you can achieve!
I have been tutoring, teaching, and coaching Speech and Debate since I was in high school, and have since worked in multiple college-preparatory private schools, private middle schools, and colleges. I have experience working one-on-one with all ages from 9 to 22, with the vast majority of my experience being with students who have learning differences or ADHD. I specialize in reading and writing remediation, executive functioning support, managing a learner’s individual needs, and developing a supportive culture where the necessary scaffolding and definition of success is unique to every student.
