With a degree in Elementary/Special Education from La Salle University and Instructional I Certifications in Special Education (PreK-8) and Elementary Education (PK-4), I bring 13 years of teaching experience in urban classroom settings. My expertise includes working with diverse learners, including students with IEPs, learning disabilities, and behavioral challenges in both special education and elementary education environments.

Beyond the classroom, I have tutored students in grades 4-7, providing personalized, one-on-one support tailored to individual learning styles and needs. My tutoring approach focuses on multi-sensory instruction, differentiation, and building confidence to ensure student success. Whether reinforcing foundational skills or advancing academic progress, I am committed to fostering a supportive and engaging learning experience for every student.
