"I am a College Prep and Bilingual Education Specialist with over 15 years of experience teaching English as a Second Language (ESL), English for Academic Purposes (EAP), Spanish, and academic writing in K–12, higher education, and adult education settings. I hold a Doctorate in Education (Ed.D.) and a Master’s in Instructional Practice, along with active teaching licenses in Florida and Tennessee.

My students range from K-12 to college and adult learners refining their academic or professional English. I support clients with college application essays, academic writing, reading comprehension, test prep (TOEFL, SAT/ACT verbal), and bilingual transitions from Spanish to English in academic environments. My tutoring style is warm, structured, and highly personalized—I create a supportive space for learners to gain confidence, build foundational skills, and meet high-level goals.

I have worked in public schools, community colleges, and university programs in the U.S. and Latin America. Whether you’re a first-generation college student, an adult learner returning to school, or a bilingual student seeking to strengthen academic English, I bring both the professional expertise and cultural sensitivity to help you succeed." less...
