"I am an experienced educator with a strong academic foundation and a passion for helping students succeed through personalized instruction. I hold a bachelor’s degree and have professional teaching experience working with elementary students in both traditional classroom settings and virtual learning environments. My background has given me a solid understanding of curriculum standards, student learning progressions, and effective strategies for supporting a wide range of learning needs in an online format.

I have extensive experience providing individualized instruction through online tutoring and virtual small-group lessons. I am comfortable using digital tools such as shared screens, virtual whiteboards, visual models, and guided practice to make lessons engaging and easy to follow. My approach is patient, structured, and adaptable. I break concepts into clear, manageable steps, check for understanding throughout each session, and adjust instruction in real time based on student responses. I focus on helping students truly understand the material rather than memorize steps, so they can apply their learning independently.

When tutoring through Wyzant, I aim to create a supportive and encouraging online learning experience that helps students build confidence and make consistent progress. I tailor each session to the student’s goals and learning style, communicate clearly with parents about progress and expectations, and provide strategies students can continue using between sessions. My goal is to help students feel capable, motivated, and successful in a virtual learning environment." less...
