As a passionate educator with a Bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of Houston-Downtown, I bring over 5 years of tutoring experience, specializing in Elementary School English, Math, Reading, and Science. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive learning environment where each student feels valued and empowered to reach their full potential. I am certified to teach in Texas and have taught in public schools for over 12 years, including the last 3 years in a virtual setting, which has allowed me to connect with learners from diverse backgrounds. Currently, I am dedicated to tutoring students in grades PK-4th, utilizing the Barton Reading & Spelling System to foster strong literacy skills. My motivation stems from witnessing the transformative impact of education, and I am committed to nurturing a love of learning in every student I work with.
