As a certified English Language Arts teacher with a Master's in Adolescence Education from Mercy University, I am passionate about fostering a love for literature and language in my students. With over 10 years of tutoring and classroom experience, I specialize in English grammar, writing, and reading comprehension for grades 7-12, as well as ESL for diverse learners. My teaching philosophy centers on personalizing instruction to meet each student's unique needs, utilizing engaging materials and interactive methods to keep them motivated. I believe in creating a supportive environment where students feel empowered to express themselves and develop critical thinking skills. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring literature and traveling, which enriches my teaching and helps me connect real-world experiences to the curriculum.
