Certified Tutor

Education has the power to change lives, and I am passionate about helping students experience that transformation. I am motivated by the excitement students feel when they grasp a new concept, overcome a challenge, or realize what they are capable of achieving. Every session is an opportunity to not just teach, but to inspire confidence and resilience.

Over the years, I have worked with students across different age groups and learning styles, helping them build both academic skills and self-assurance. Whether in small groups or one-on-one settings, I strive to create a learning environment that feels encouraging, personalized, and empowering.

My academic background includes earning a Bachelor's degree in Graphic Design Specialization at Oral Roberts University. I am currently continuing my professional development with additional certifications in digital media and education to better serve today's diverse learners.

I tutor a variety of subjects including graphic design, data analysis, UI/UX, swimming, digital media, chess, writing, Bible, and project development. My favorite subject to tutor is graphic design because it allows students to combine creative thinking with technical skills, and I love helping learners discover how design can be both an expressive art and a powerful communication tool.

My teaching philosophy is rooted in collaboration, curiosity, and clarity. I believe that students thrive when they are active participants in their learning journey. My tutoring style is highly interactive, blending clear explanations with real-world examples, hands-on practice, and regular encouragement to keep students motivated and engaged.
