I am a former middle school English Language Arts teacher with a bachelor’s degree in Education and Biblical Studies and ACSI certification. I taught students in grades 6–8 in a structured classroom environment, where I designed and delivered rigorous, standards-aligned instruction in reading comprehension, literary analysis, grammar, vocabulary, and academic writing. My training in education and adolescent literacy enables me to identify skill gaps quickly and implement targeted strategies that lead to measurable growth.
In addition to whole-class instruction, I provided individualized and small-group support for students needing intervention as well as enrichment. I specialize in guiding students through the full writing process, helping them develop strong thesis statements, organize ideas logically, support arguments with textual evidence, and revise with clarity and purpose. I emphasize critical thinking, academic vocabulary development, and structured writing frameworks that build long-term independence and confidence.
I have experience preparing students for formal assessments and strengthening timed written responses, while also helping reluctant readers and writers build foundational skills. Each session is intentionally tailored to the student’s academic goals, learning style, and areas of growth. My goal is not only to improve grades, but to equip students with the reading and writing skills necessary for long-term academic success.
