I am an educator of 15+ years, primarily in English/humanities, though I occasionally dabble in math/science and such. I hold a Masters in Education specializing in secondary education, but I've worked with a wide variety of student demographics: K-12, college/university, returning students, ESL/ELL, gifted and/or reluctant learners, etc. I enjoy the challenge of stepping outside of my comfort zone in terms of teaching assignments, and I believe my passion for being in the classroom rubs off on my students. My teaching philosophy includes having a learner-centered growth mindset that takes into account students' social-emotional health and personalized learning needs. I enjoy both the in-person and virtual classroom, and am a passionate advocate of both standards-based learning and the STEAM curriculum. I believe I am an approachable, efficient, and competent teacher/tutor whom students can tell genuinely cares about their academic success and personal well-being. I look forward to acclimating myself into the Varsity Tutors culture. Nice to 'meet' you!
