I’m a certified elementary educator with several years of experience helping students build confidence and skills in reading, writing, and math. I’ve taught in both classroom and one-on-one settings, including special education, and previously worked as a paraprofessional supporting middle and high school students who needed extra academic and organizational support. I love helping students feel capable and supported—especially when school has started to feel overwhelming or frustrating. My tutoring style is structured, encouraging, and focused on helping students truly understand what they’re learning (with the occasional smile or laugh along the way).

I specialize in reading support, phonics, comprehension, and elementary math, and I’m especially effective with students who need extra patience, clear explanations, or a different approach to learning. My goal is for students to leave sessions saying, “Ohhh, that makes sense!” Many of the students I work with benefit from breaking lessons into smaller, manageable steps and learning strategies that actually make sense to them. I also provide homework help and skill reinforcement while keeping sessions engaging and positive. Parents appreciate that I communicate clearly and share practical strategies students can use between sessions.

Tutoring should feel calm, supportive, and confidence-building. I create a positive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and celebrating progress. Whether your child needs help catching up, staying organized, or building confidence in reading or math, I’m committed to helping them grow into confident, independent learners.
