I have been a public school teacher for 18 years teaching k-12 special education, with the bulk of my experience teaching in the secondary setting. I am highly qualified to teach math k-11, and I have my ESL endorsement. I have a Bachelors degree in special education from Utah State University, a bachelors degree in Psychology from the University of Utah, and a Masters degree in teaching and learning from Argosy University.
My specialties are teaching diverse or struggling learners in math and reading. I have been certified to teach the SONDAY reading system and various other reading intervention programs. I have taught or co-taught math anywhere from 1st grade to 11th grade. I am a firm believer in tailoring my teaching to fit a students needs. I can help with homework or specific skill gaps that a student may have from previous years. I am friendly and believe in creating positive environment and practice positive behavioral supports with all my students. I am great at building rapport with students and parents and really want your kids to achieve and progress. I am not a stuffy math teacher, and I like to have fun and try to make learning fun. I tutored for Canyons School district for three years helping kids get their GED or with completing packets to meet graduation requirements.

Approved Subjects

ADHD

ADHD

Special Education & ADHD Specialist With 18 years of experience in special education, a Bachelor’s in Special Education, and a Master’s in Teaching and Learning, I specialize in tutoring students with ADHD and IEP accommodations in Math and Reading. I go beyond standard tutoring by teaching students how to manage ADHD symptoms, master organization, and build sustainable study habits—giving neurodivergent learners the tools to thrive independently in the classroom.
Algebra 1

I have taught high school algebra as a teacher or co-teacher for 10 years. I am a special education teacher who is highly qualified in math based off passing Math Praxis exams. I have taught k-12 in most math subjects including math 7, math 8, secondary 1, secondary 2. I am great at breaking down complex terms into simple understandable steps and specialize in struggling learners. I have taught up to trigonometry and helped with ACT prep. I am not a math major and that has been a great benefit as a I see and understand the struggles students can have with math and don't act confused when students "don't get it"
Dyslexia

Dyslexia

I have taught reading in a k-12 setting for students who have an IEP and reading goals. I most recently taught at an elementary school using the SONDAY reading curriculum which is researched based and effective for helping students with Dyslexia. I am experienced at diagnosing deficits and implementing reading strategies that are proven to help in these areas. Dyslexia is complex and lifelong and my goal is to develop compensatory skills to allow students to begin to read more efficiently and to develop confidence in reading.
Prealgebra

I have taught math 7, math 8, secondary 1, secondary 2 and co-taught in secondary 3 in the high school and junior high setting . I have also taught math decision making and tutored lots of kids through math packets. I have special education degreee and am highly qualified to teach math k-11 based off praxis exam scores. I specialize in helping struggling students or students with disabilities.

Reading

I have a bachelors in psychology and special education. I have masters in teaching and learning and specialize in understanding the learning process and various strategies to help students learn and make progress. I have taught the Sonday reading system which is a researched curriculum for struggling readers and for students with dyslexia. I have taught students reading who have IEP goals for reading fluency, basic reading and reading comprehension in grades k-12. I have co-taught in English classes in high school and taught my own reading classes in junior high and elementary. I have used about every researched based reading program you can name and really enjoy seeing my students achieve and make progress in reading. I can help students who need help catching up or with homework in reading and ELA.
