About Becky


Bio

Howdy! I’m a Texas-certified Language Arts and History teacher with six years of classroom experience spanning PreK through 12th grade, along with reading intervention training in teaching students with learning differences such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, and ADHD. While it’s fulfilling working in classrooms, my teaching heart is with tutoring—where I can connect with students one-on-one and support their individual growth.

Howdy! I’m a Texas-certified Language Arts and History teacher with six years of classroom experience spanning PreK through 12th grade, along with reading intervention training in teaching students with learning differences such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, and ADHD. While it’s fulfilling working in classrooms, my teaching heart is with tutoring—where I can connect with students one-on-one and support their individual growth.

I bring over 15 years of experience tutoring in learning centers such as Sylvan and Huntington, working with students from elementary through college level improve their reading and writing skills, whether it be to write a college essay or get caught up in reading. I believe that making the right connection is vital to helping a student excel, which is why I value communication and feedback from the families I work with. I encourage you step into my virtual office anytime and talk to me about what your student needs to succeed.

My teaching style is a hearty mix of humor, encouragement, and targeted skills coaching to keep students engaged and making progress, whether online or in-person. I’m known for helping students build both confidence and capability, and I’m committed to finding the approach that works best for each learner, whether the need is enrichment or to catch up.

My tutoring focus areas include beginning reading with phonics and sight word instruction, reading comprehension, ELA/English I–IV support, handwriting (manuscript or cursive – in-person only), essay and creative writing, ISEE/SSAT prep, and study skills coaching with homework support. I’d love to help your student succeed!

Approved Subjects

Grammar

Grammar

I love teaching grammar and making learning sentence structure fun! I start with a student writing sample and target particular skills to strength writing. Then, once this foundation is laid, we strengthen paragraphs. I want my students to outsmart Grammarly, not rely on it.
ISEE

ISEE

I spent 4 years at Huntington Learning Center directing and teaching customized ISEE preparation programs. My students gain confidence and experience, entering their exams well-prepared. I use a patient, balanced approach that combines test-taking strategies, targeted skill instruction, and guided practice to reduce anxiety and build familiarity with the exam format.
Writing

Writing

I have 10 years experience teaching writing in tutoring settings as well as 6 years ELA classroom teaching experience. Writing can be a difficult concept to grasp, so I use a combination of creative writing and essay writing instruction to pique the interest of my students. I believe strong grammar skills paired with complex sentence writing instruction are the foundations for academic and business writing.
