As a dedicated teacher, tutor, and educational therapist with 18 years of experience in the field of education, I am committed to helping students overcome challenges, catch up, or excel. My qualifications include certifications in EC-4 (all subjects), English Language Arts and Reading across all grade levels, ESL, and Gifted and Talented education. Additionally, I have provided tutoring in social studies, math, and science.

I hold a degree in English with a minor in psychology from Texas A&M University, which has equipped me with a strong foundation in understanding diverse learning needs. My extensive experience includes working with students with learning differences, where I have served as both a teacher/tutor and a certified NILD educational therapist.

I specialize in quickly identifying specific areas of weakness while leveraging students' strengths and interests to design engaging and individualized lessons. As a member of Mensa, I have also successfully supported gifted and talented students in reaching their full potential.

My approach includes building strong mentorship relationships with my students. I take pride in the success of my long-term mentees, one of whom recently graduated from an Ivy League university.

I invite you to collaborate with me in creating a customized plan tailored to your educational goals or those of your students. Let’s embark on this journey together to achieve lasting success!

STAAR

As a public school teacher of English, Language Arts, and Reading I spent 12 years preparing my students to take the STAAR test. For 2 years I held after school tutorials for students whose benchmark scores indicated they were at greater risk of failing the STAAR test. I facilitated practice test sessions and taught test-taking strategies that could be employed during home study in advance of taking the test as well as strategies employed on the day of the test. I’m a Texas certified teacher.
