As a certified educator with over nine years of experience in the education field, I specialize in helping struggling students build the foundational skills they need to succeed academically. I hold a degree from Prairie View A&M University and have spent the last seven years in the classroom as a full-time teacher, primarily working with primary grade students. My experience has taught me that every child learns differently, which is why I focus on creating personalized learning plans that cater to the unique needs of each student. Whether a child is falling behind in phonics, reading comprehension, or basic math skills, I use proven, student-centered strategies to help them regain confidence and achieve measurable progress.

My approach to tutoring blends patience, encouragement, and targeted instruction. I’ve worked extensively with students ages 5–13 in both classroom and one-on-one settings. I’m particularly effective at identifying learning gaps and using engaging, hands-on methods to close them—especially in early literacy and reading intervention. I’ve also served as a support coach for small reading groups, and I frequently work with students needing early academic intervention. By creating a safe and encouraging environment, I help students feel empowered and excited to learn, even when school feels frustrating.

Whether your child is struggling to decode words or falling behind in core subjects, I bring the training, compassion, and expertise needed to make learning less stressful and more successful. I believe in progress over perfection and work closely with families to ensure their child receives the tools and support they need to thrive.
