I am dedicated to helping students of all ages to grow and to have a deeper understanding of all areas of English Language Arts. As someone that once struggled with reading comprehension, it is important to me that students gain the skills that they need in order to be successful and to be able to recall what they just read. I can remember my teachers asking me to read aloud in class. I was always extremely uncomfortable and self conscious about it. I don't want any student, young or old, to fee...More

I am passionate about helping students because I love that "aha" moment when something they have been working so hard on finally clicks. Being able to help students of any age use their knowledge and give them tools to help them be as successful as possible is my biggest goal of being an educator. Teaching academics as well as real life skills is a huge factor as to why I decided to be an educator. I love working with students, engaging them in their learning, and showing them how to have positi...More

In teaching and tutoring, I see myself more as a facilitator of learning who provides students the necessary tools and direction for them to uncover the concepts themselves. Soon we will engage in t...More

I graduated in 2020 with a Bachelor's of Science in Psychology with a minor in legal studies and a concentration in politics...More

I am a believer in the active learning model of education. Students can memorize as much as they wish, but learning requires that teachers find some way of allowing the student to apply what they have learned. In some subjects this is easier to achieve than in others, but in any interaction with a student, I try to make sure that the learning is as engaging and active as possible.
