PhD Carson-Newman College • MS Bethel University
2+ Years Tutoring

As an experienced educator, I design my online tutoring sessions to help students feel confident, capable, and truly supported. I create personalized lessons that build on your child's strengths while addressing areas where they need extra help. My goal is to make learning clear, engaging, and enjoyable. Each session is interactive and structured. I use visuals, modeling, guided practice, and real-time feedback to keep your child focused and successful. I also adapt my instruction based on how your child learns best, whether they need support with reading, math, writing, or overall confidence. Family communication is important to me. I keep parents informed, share strategies to use at home, and celebrate every bit of progress. You will always know what your child is working on and how they are growing. Most of all, I tutor because I love helping students succeed. When children feel encouraged and supported, they thrive, and I am committed to making that happen for your child.

When a student wants to learn, teaching and tutoring can be the best job in the world. My learning philosophy? Don't forget to breathe!As an undergraduate, I attended Carson-Newman College and studied mathematics and sociology. I then enrolled at the University of Mississippi, where I studied mathematics and earned my Masters of Arts degree. As a result of my academic experience I love tutoring math, particularly Algebra and Geometry. I also have a large amount of fondness for test prep. Although I'm happy to work with both in-person and online students, I believe that I would be most helpful to students who are looking for an online tutor, as I currently teach back-to-back classes at an online university and am comfortable with the interface and expectations.Previously, I worked as a tutor in a tutoring lab, where I would tutor in an open lab hour-for-hour up to the number of credits we were teaching each term--in my case, eight hours. I've taught both high school and college students, and also tutored for a commercial tutoring company in the 90s. Old-school.When I'm not teaching or tutoring, I practice yoga; it doesn't feel right not to stretch for the day!

I love helping children learn to read fluently and with understanding. I have many years of experience with young learners and know that positive encouragement helps children feel comfortable enough to excel. I work with children from where they are comfortable moving on to more difficult skills. Reading is my passion however, I enjoy teaching and helping children discover new found skills. I work well with young, beginning readers readers, ADD and ADHD students. I have worked with ESL children learning English both in the classroom and online. Each student brings opportunities for growth for both the student and the tutor. I enjoy spending time with my grandchildren, reading, playing word and online brain teasers.

EDU Carson-Newman College • EDU Radford University
2+ Years Tutoring

I have a Master of Arts degree in English, an Education Specialist degree, and a Doctorate of Education. I've taught high school English for 24 years, and I still love it! I enjoy all of the subjects I teach, (I teach Speech and ACT Prep as well as English) but I especially love literature -- interpreting it and writing about it -- and grammar. I had an amazing grammar teacher who taught me that grammar makes sense, and I like turning on that light for others. I like meeting students, hearing about their challenges, and supporting them as they strive toward their goals. I've had great success helping students prepare for standardized tests, essays, and presentations. When I'm not teaching, I love to read, crochet, watch true crime documentaries, and hang out with my dog and family.
