I am a Texas certified special education and secondary science teacher with a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry from Virginia Tech. I am also pursuing a master’s degree in chemistry education. I have more than six years of classroom experience and over two years of private tutoring experience in math and chemistry. I have taught Chemistry, Biology, and Pre AP Chemistry and supported students in Algebra and Geometry. Before entering education, I worked as a medical laboratory scientist, giving me practical experience that helps me connect scientific concepts to real world applications.
My tutoring focuses on building clarity, confidence, and problem solving skills. I break complex ideas into manageable steps and use examples to confirm understanding before moving forward. I also encourage students to explain their reasoning aloud because teaching a concept back is an excellent way to strengthen learning. My approach combines patience, high expectations, and engaging explanations tailored to each student.
I support learners at many ability levels, from students strengthening foundational skills to advanced students preparing for college science. My goal is to help students improve academically while developing lasting confidence and greater independence as learners.
