"I’m a certified Texas teacher with a strong background in English Language Arts instruction for grades 4–8. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Government from the University of Texas at Austin and a supplemental bilingual certification in Spanish. For the past three years, I’ve taught middle school ELA in public schools, serving a diverse range of students—including English learners, students receiving special education services, and advanced readers—across both traditional and dual-language settings.

My students have consistently outperformed district benchmarks on standardized tests, including an 85% pass rate on the STAAR Reading exam. While I’m results-driven, I believe the most meaningful learning happens when students feel seen, heard, and empowered. That’s why my tutoring approach is centered on connection, confidence, and clarity. I focus on breaking down writing, grammar, and reading skills into accessible, student-friendly steps while building real-world relevance and engagement. I’ve tutored students one-on-one, led small group interventions, and created custom learning materials based on student needs and interests.

Whether your learner needs help understanding text structure, mastering grammar rules, or building a standout essay, I bring patience, humor, and high expectations to every session. My goal is not just to boost scores—but to help students truly enjoy the process of learning." less...
