I received a Bachelor of Arts in Accounting from the University of Oregon and a Master of Science in Special Education from Portland State University. After receiving my Master's degree, I attended Concordia University to add Elementary Education - Multiple Subjects to my license. I've spent the last 5 years working as a Learning Specialist, designing instruction to help students master the prerequisites needed to access grade level class content. During Comprehensive Distance Learning, I taught reading, writing, and math online for 1st through 5th graders of all abilities. I've also tutored high school students in several subjects, including calculus. My vast experience working in small groups and 1:1 allows me to maximize efficiency while helping students gain skills and take pride in their hard work.
