About Me

My teaching journey began in 1992, when I graduated from Western Carolina University with Bachelor's Degrees in Secondary English and Spanish K-12 Education. I taught elementary Spanish for 5 years while traveling between 3 schools, then changed directions to home-school our 4 children with my husband. After an unexpected life change in 2021, I switched directions again to earn my TEFL degree, Level 5 Certification, from The TEFL Academy while tutoring in a local public elementary school, grades 1-5. I teach adult ELL and Pre-Calculus at a local college. I enjoy tutoring a wide range of subjects, including Math, Science, Grammar, Literacy, ELA, Shakespeare, History, and Spanish. I love seeing the "A-HA!" moments with students when everything clicks and understanding sinks in! I want to continue to learn and grow so that I can help anyone who comes in my path. My objective is to give courage and hope to each person I encounter, equipping them with any tools they may need to succeed.
