Certified Tutor

My goal is to create a positive, supportive environment where students not only feel comfortable and engaged but also excited to learn, fostering a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.

As a licensed elementary school teacher of 14 years, I specialize in tutoring students from kindergarten to 5th grade, offering personalized support in early reading, writing, and math. I understand that each child learns differently, so I tailor my lessons to meet every student's unique needs and learning styles. Whether your child needs extra help with homework, preparation for tests, or simply wants to enhance their skills, I am here to help!

I believe in fostering a growth mindset, where mistakes are seen as opportunities to learn and grow. My approach is patient, encouraging, and interactive, ensuring that students not only grasp the material but also develop a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.

If you're looking for a tutor who is passionate about making learning fun and meaningful, I'd love to work with your child and help them reach their full potential.

Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can assist your child in their academic journey!
