I am currently an Elementary School teacher. I teach General Music at 2 schools in Jefferson County Colorado. I have worked at over 5 different Elementary Schools in various areas. I graduated from the University of Maryland with a B.S. in Family Science with a focus in Elementary Education. I am confident that my experience, skill set and leadership abilities are going to contribute to my success as a Varsity Tutor.

I believe forging long-lasting, strong relationships with students is crucial to academic success. A student must feel secure taking risks in order to grow.

I have held numerous teaching positions with ages 2-16.I also have experience as a Reading Partners tutor, a first grade classroom intern, a pre-school classroom head teacher, a tennis instructor and a reading/writing tutor. I have developed invaluable skills crucial to being a successful educator through these experiences. My experiences have helped me develop exceptional communication skills with my students and their families as well as outstanding organizational skills and a profound work ethic. My strong references also attest to my successful performances and abilities. (Feel free to message me for letters of recommendation, observation notes, and references!)

As a passionate, motivated educator, I am extremely excited to continue tutoring with Varsity Tutors and to establish personal connections with each student I have the opportunity to meet and work with!
