Certified Teacher (ELA, Math, WIDA, middle school support)

Litzy S.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and am a licensed teacher with experience supporting diverse learners in both elementary and middle school settings. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with students across core academic subjects, including English Language Arts and Mathematics. I also have experience supporting English Language Learners and preparing students for language proficiency assessments, which has strengthened my ability to differentiate instruction and build academic vocabulary.

I have several years of classroom teaching experience in traditional school settings, where I have taught whole-group lessons, small-group interventions, and provided individualized academic support. In addition to classroom instruction, I have worked with students in one-on-one and small group settings to close learning gaps, strengthen foundational skills, and build confidence. My teaching approach focuses on clear explanations, scaffolded instruction, guided practice, and ongoing formative assessment to ensure students truly understand the material.

I have taught students ranging from lower and upper elementary through middle school, adapting lessons to meet varying ability levels and learning styles. Whether working in a classroom, intervention group, or individualized tutoring setting, I prioritize creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and taking academic risks. My goal is not only to improve grades and test scores, but to help students become confident, independent learners.
