As an enthusiastic educator with a Master's Degree in Education from the University of Phoenix and a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, I am passionate about nurturing a love for learning in my students. With over 5 years of tutoring experience, I specialize in AP English Literature, Psychology, and History, and I also guide students through successful preparation for major exams including the CSET, MCAT, SAT, GRE, and other standardized tests.

Drawing on my background in psychology, I integrate research-based strategies that help students think critically, strengthen memory, and build lasting understanding. I use principles of cognitive science from mnemonic devices and retrieval practice to multisensory engagement to make learning both effective and enjoyable. My teaching style blends patient, step-by-step scaffolding with adaptive techniques tailored to each learner's strengths, needs, and goals.

I believe every student has unique potential, and I strive to create an inclusive, encouraging environment where they feel supported, challenged, and inspired to succeed academically and personally. Through empathy, clear communication, and purposeful instruction, my students not only master the material, but also develop the mental tools and confidence to thrive in lifelong learning.
