I’m a certified Texas educator with 20 years of teaching experience, specializing in 8th grade U.S. History and STAAR test preparation. I’ve taught both 7th and 8th grade history and consistently delivered outstanding STAAR results. I have a deep understanding of the TEKS and know how to break down complex historical topics so students can relate, remember, and succeed.
I’ve helped turn around academic performance at my school through focused, student-centered instruction. I’ve also served as a department chair for over 10 years, a team lead, junior high coordinator, and member of several hiring and academic committees. These leadership roles have sharpened my ability to guide both students and colleagues to success.
In addition to my classroom experience, I’ve been a head basketball coach and head cross country coach. I bring a coach’s mindset to tutoring — encouraging, disciplined, and goal-oriented. I know how to push students to believe in themselves while providing the structure they need to excel.
My tutoring style adapts to each student’s learning style and needs. Whether your child is struggling to pass the STAAR or aiming for mastery, I focus on building confidence, test strategies, and critical thinking skills. I primarily work with middle school students but also support high schoolers in social studies and test prep.
If you’re looking for a results-driven, experienced, and passionate educator who knows how to motivate and teach, I’m here to help your student grow.
