I attended Sam Houston State University and graduated with my Bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a minor in EC-6. I have taught for 10 years in Conroe ISD. I taught 1st and 4th self contained, 5th grade ELA, and I am currently in my favorite grade and subject: 4th grade Reading Language Arts! I am Science of Teaching and Reading Academy certified.

Reading, writing, and grammar are what I specialize in, but students are my real passion. Helping students grow, learn, gain confidence, and take ownership over their own learning are always my goals as we work through curriculum. I learned so much about reading skills by completing Reading Academy and teaching 1st graders how to read. I am able to use these skills to fill gaps with older students. I also LOVE to integrate reading, writing, and grammar lessons. Every tutoring session is a lesson in these, no matter what we are working on.

As well as teaching in the classroom, I have always tutored after school and on the weekends. I love being able to work one on one with students and offer accommodations they may need to be successful, help them complete work, internalize material, feel confident in their effort, or teach a hard concept in a different way for them.

Approved Subjects

Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I have taught a STAAR tested writing grade level for 8 years. Our focus is argumentative, opinion, and informational. We follow the writing process in an easy and fun way that makes sense to your student. We do each part together from planning to publishing. I have graphic organizers and other tools to help organize our thinking. We will start with a hook, include a strong claim, and back it all up with supporting evidence!
Fiction Writing

Fiction Writing

I have taught Elementary and Middle school writing for over 10 years. Every subject incudes writing, imaginative thinking, and ties into the stories we read. I teach a unit every year on fiction writing. We focus on elements of fiction and plot: problem, solution, beginning, middle, end, and action that moves the plot along. I have resources for any type of learner, from the over imaginative students who need to organize their ideas, to the student who stares at a blank piece of paper for an hour instead of getting started. We tie in figurative language, sensory details, and descriptive details to our stories, and revise and edit as we go.
