I bring a strong educational background and years of teaching experience to my tutoring. I hold Associate’s degrees in both Middle School Education and Early Childhood Education. I have completed over 180 college credits and will finish my Bachelor’s in Elementary Education with full teacher certification in May 2027. For the past three years, I have taught math and science at a charter school, and I currently serve as a Math Interventionist, supporting small groups of students in strengthening their computation and problem-solving skills. I also have experience working with learners ages 3 through 18 in one-on-one tutoring, classroom teaching, and group classes through a homeschool association. In addition, I homeschooled my two children from fourth grade through graduation, giving me valuable experience in adapting instruction to meet individual needs.

My tutoring style is student-centered and flexible. I adapt lessons to each student’s strengths and challenges, breaking down concepts into manageable steps for struggling learners while providing enrichment and real-world applications for advanced students. I use games, interactive activities, and visual strategies to keep sessions engaging and meaningful. What sets me apart as a tutor is my ability to combine patience, creativity, and high expectations so that students not only improve academically but also gain confidence and independence as learners.

Looking ahead, I plan to continue developing as an educator by pursuing a Master’s degree in Project-Based Learning. I am passionate about hands-on, personalized instruction that shows students how classroom learning connects to the world around them. My goal is to provide effective, engaging support that equips each student for success now and in the future.

Approved Subjects

ADHD

ADHD

As someone diagnosed with ADHD in adulthood, I understand both the challenges and strengths that come with it. I have extensive experience working with students who have ADHD and other neurodivergent learning styles, both in my role as a math interventionist and as a tutor across multiple subjects. I create structured yet flexible lessons that break concepts into manageable steps while using engaging strategies to build focus, confidence, and independence. My approach blends professional expertise with personal understanding, ensuring students feel supported, motivated, and capable of success.
Common Core

Common Core

I have experience teaching and tutoring across multiple grade levels using Common Core standards in math, reading, writing, and more. While I support students in all subjects, my greatest passion is math—I love helping kids discover the joy in exploring numbers, patterns, and problem-solving. In addition to my work as a math interventionist, I homeschooled my own children from 4th grade through graduation, which gave me firsthand experience in tailoring lessons to meet unique learning needs. My goal is to make learning meaningful and enjoyable so every student can grow in confidence and succeed.
Cosmetology

Cosmetology

I am a retired licensed cosmetologist in Illinois and South Carolina with years of professional experience behind the chair and as a salon owner. My expertise covers hair, skin, and nail care as well as the business side of cosmetology. I support students in preparing for their state board exams with step-by-step guidance, while also mentoring them in the practical skills and professional mindset needed to succeed in a salon. My goal is to help future cosmetologists build confidence, pass their exams, and thrive in their careers.
Creative Writing

Creative Writing

I have 30 years of experience guiding students of all ages in developing their creative voices through storytelling, poetry, and personal narratives. My approach emphasizes building confidence, fostering imagination, and helping students organize their ideas into polished writing. I have taught creative writing in both classroom and one-on-one settings, encouraging students to experiment with style, structure, and genre. Whether a student is just beginning or already passionate about writing, I provide supportive feedback and strategies that help them grow as confident, expressive writers.

Elementary (K-6th)

I have years of experience teaching and tutoring elementary students across all core subjects, including reading, writing, math, science, and social studies. I also homeschooled my two children from fourth grade through graduation, giving me a strong foundation in creating lessons that adapt to different learning styles. My approach emphasizes hands-on activities, games, and real-world connections to make learning meaningful and engaging. I am skilled at supporting struggling learners as well as those who need enrichment, ensuring every student grows in confidence and ability.

Elementary Math

I have several years of experience teaching and tutoring math to students in grades K through 12, both in classrooms and one-on-one settings. As a Math Interventionist, I specialize in supporting students who are struggling and helping them build confidence through step-by-step instruction and real-world problem solving. I tailor my lessons to each learner’s needs, ensuring they develop strong foundational skills and make measurable progress.
Homeschool

Homeschool

I homeschooled my two children from 4th grade through graduation, gaining years of experience creating lessons across all core subjects and adapting them to different learning styles. That journey inspired me to pursue teaching more formally, and I am now a math interventionist and public charter school teacher. My combined background allows me to support both families who are new to homeschooling and students who need extra guidance in specific subjects. I love helping learners build confidence, discover their strengths, and find joy in education, whether at home or in the classroom.
Painting

Painting

I love helping elementary and secondary students discover the joy of painting through fun, hands-on lessons. My approach blends creativity with skill-building by introducing a variety of mediums such as watercolor, acrylic, and tempera while encouraging students to experiment with color, texture, and technique. I make painting both exciting and accessible so students can gain confidence while developing their artistic voice. Parents can feel confident knowing my lessons foster creativity, self-expression, and a strong foundation in the visual arts.
Reading

Reading

I have extensive experience helping students strengthen their reading skills, from early phonics and fluency to advanced comprehension and analysis. In my work with elementary and middle school students, I use engaging strategies such as read-alouds, guided practice, and discussion to build both skill and confidence. I am also skilled at supporting reluctant or struggling readers, including those with ADHD and other learning differences, by tailoring instruction to their individual needs. My goal is to help students not only improve their reading ability but also develop a lifelong love of reading.
