As a dedicated educator with a Master's degree in Educational Administration and a Bachelor's degree in Special Education from Franciscan University of Steubenville, I have over 28 years of experience in both tutoring and classroom teaching. I believe in creating a supportive learning environment that fosters confidence and curiosity, utilizing personalized strategies that cater to each student's unique strengths. Currently, I am a certified special education administrator , and my ongoing commitment to professional growth drives me to continually adapt my methods to better engage and inspire my students. Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading and exploring new educational resources, which further enrich my approach to tutoring. I am also passionate about assisting students with special needs transition into adulthood and find connections with outside resources/agencies that will support them and encourage them toward the world of work, further trade school training or other post secondary skill training.
