I'm Rosa and I'm passionate about helping middle school students build confidence and master challenging subjects. I hold a Master's degree in Middle Level Education from the University of Pennsylvania (4.0 GPA) with certification in grades 4-8 social studies and English language arts. I also recently completed my Advanced TEFL certification, which has deepened my ability to support English learners and students who need targeted language support.
Over the past four years, I've taught seventh and eighth grade social studies in Philadelphia public schools, working with diverse learners in both whole-group and small-group settings. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of how middle schoolers learn best—through engagement, real-world connections, and supportive feedback. Currently, I tutor eighth graders in math and English language arts at Tutor Me Education, providing homework support in algebra and reading comprehension. I've found that one-on-one tutoring allows me to tailor my approach to each student's learning style and pace, something I couldn't always do in a classroom of thirty students.
My tutoring methods focus on building foundational skills, breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps, and creating a safe space where students feel comfortable asking questions. I'm bilingual in Spanish, which helps me support English learners and their families. Whether you're looking for homework help, test prep, or support building reading and math skills, I'm here to help your student succeed.
