As a dedicated educator with over 2 years of tutoring experience and 13 years in the classroom, I am passionate about fostering a love for learning in my students. Holding a Master's degree in Elementary Reading and Math from Walden University, I specialize in elementary and middle school English, math, and reading. My teaching philosophy centers on building trustful relationships with students, allowing me to tailor lessons to their individual learning styles and interests, whether through math applications in sports or cooking. I am committed to creating engaging, personalized learning experiences that promote academic success and critical thinking. My ongoing professional development ensures that I stay current with educational practices, further enhancing my ability to support student growth. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new teaching strategies and connecting math to everyday life, making learning both relevant and enjoyable for my students.
