I have over a decade of experience working with children, both in the United States and abroad. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Education and a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification, which has helped shape my understanding of how to support language learners and early readers. My approach is grounded in the science of reading, and I regularly integrate phonics-based instruction with engaging, interactive methods to help students become confident, independent readers. I use programs like UFLI, Reading A-Z, and BOB Books, and I supplement with tools like Koala Go to create a virtual classroom environment that’s both fun and effective.
I spent over five years teaching children aged 4 to 12 in Beijing, China, where I led both small group and one-on-one classes focused on early literacy, vocabulary development, and reading comprehension. Since returning to the U.S., I’ve continued tutoring students online, primarily working with children between the ages of 4 and 10. Many of my students come from high-achieving families and are involved in various extracurriculars. I specialize in helping children who may struggle with phonics, digraphs, or reading fluency, and I enjoy building their confidence through personalized instruction. Whether I’m working with a reluctant reader or a child just beginning their phonics journey, I focus on making reading joyful, accessible, and meaningful.
