Certified Tutor

I am certified to teach early childhood to sixth grade in all subjects and 7-12 for English Language Arts. I have taught English for 5th-10th grade, social studies/history for 6th-9th, and humanities for 6th-9th.

I have spent the last several years working with students from a myriad of backgrounds and cultures in Houston, until I moved away in 2021.
90% of my students were English Language Learners. I pride myself on my ability to meet the diverse needs of my students. Through reading and writing my students are taught to express themselves. Ultimately, it is my goal to help my students grow into empathetic, engaged, and culturally literate young men and women who can effectively communicate their thoughts and feelings in a variety of ways.

My philosophy on education is informed by my experience working in International Baccalaureate and Montesssori Schools, where I cultivated a classroom driven on student choice and project based learning. I am a big proponate of the Reader and Writer Workshop system of teaching literacy; targeting students' individual needs by guiding them to choose books that will pique their interest and bolster their confidence.

I have worked with kids with dyslexia, 504 accomodations, ADHD, and ASD from EC-10th grade.

I believe every child has the potential to be a successful scholar. Some just need some additonal guidance to unlock that potential.
