Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile!

I am a former bench scientist and technical scientist in the pharmaceutical industry, as well as a former high school Chemistry and Physics teacher with a strong background in pre-med sciences and mathematics. I specialize in 1:1 personalized coaching for struggling students, high achievers, and anxious test takers who need patient, expert guidance.

My teaching style is rooted in clarity, confidence-building, and kindness. I break down complex concepts in a way that makes students feel capable and supported. I work closely with parents and teachers to build a strong academic support system around the student so they never feel like they’re doing this alone.

My students consistently see remarkable progress. Many have raised their SAT scores by 100 points or more within 8–10 weeks, and my long-term students typically experience dramatic grade improvements—some increasing from a 39% to the high 80s–low 90s.

If you’re looking for a patient expert who delivers real results while building your child’s confidence, I would be honored to work with you.

Biology

Biology

I am a graduate of Canisius University in Biological Sciences, I recently certified to teach Life Science and I'm really excited about biology and teaching it to you!
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

For elementary level education qualifications, I teach Vacation Bible School to elementary level children every year. I spent three months teaching elementary art classes as an intern. I was also a volunteer baby sitter for the Army National Guard, where I spent time teaching children reading skills. My educational background includes a holistic education in high school, which fostered educational programs such as big brother big sister and tutoring programs where I experienced teaching and tutoring students on the elementary level. I am also in the process of pursuing my masters degree in biology, so that I can teach science in schools and on the collegiate level.
Reading

Reading

Read a lot of scientific articles, and got high grades in all my English classes throughout high school and college. Reading is a huge part of writing, and in order to hone one's skills as a writer, one must be a avid reader. Scored a 620 in SAT critical reading, in the 83rd percentile.
SAT Math

SAT Math

One of the things I hear most back from my students, is how much they value our sessions together. Working together, my students and I identify where they need the most help and build a path forward. With dedication and focus, my students have reported back increase in scores, on average, of a hundred points! Your success is my passion!
SAT Reading

SAT Reading

Getting into college is something that has become essential to the success of our young people. Working together one-on-one, my students and I craft a path forward that is unique to them. Their strengths and weaknesses are honed and leveraged to help them score their best possible score, with many reporting back an average increase of around 100 pts! We can do this, together!
Study Skills

Study Skills

I believe I am qualified to tutor in study skills because of the rigor that my degree in premedical biology required. I am confident in my ability to asses a class and come up with a method of study that is uniquely tailored for success. I have been tutoring since high school and have been constantly adding to my repertoire of study techniques and have passed these successful techniques on to my students who, once having applied the techniques have seen dramatic increase in their grades. My specific tutoring method varies from student to student and is heavily rooted in individualized consultation, taking advantage of such things as; acronyms, flash cards, note taking, text reading, and relationship to everyday experiences.
Writing

My daughter wishes LeShante was her teacher!!

LeShante is such a wonderful, patient, and supportive tutor. My daughter has been having a tough time learning biology and transitioning into the demands of high school work load. LeShante has been tutoring my daughter for over a month now and it has helped her tremendously! She literally said “I wish she was my teacher”. LaShante is able to explain things in a way my daughter understands. She is calm and has given my daughter a boost of confidence in biology. Thank you so much LeShante

Leshante is a knowledge and patient tutor.

Leshante has been working with my son for several months. She listens to his needs, answers his questions, explains materials clearly, and comes prepared. We have had a great experience with Leshante. I highly recommend Leshante as a tutor!

Very patient

Leshante jumped right in to help my daughter with reading. I have a pretty chatty daughter and she redirects her in a loving way each time. I can see the progress in just these three weeks. Thanks LeShante

Truly a lifesaver!

My daughter is at college and has had a tough time with chemistry. LeShante is amazingly patient and thorough and a lifesaver. Having her come in and being able to meet her virtually gives me comfort and my daughter truly enjoyed her first session.

She's wonderful!

LeShante G. was really patient with me and worked with me to refine my essay into something I can be proud of. I really enjoyed our session and greatly benefited from it.
