"After receiving my bachelor's degree in education in 2015, I began my career in teaching. I wanted to improve my students' learning experience because I knew that, while everyone needed to pass English, not everyone loved it. With that in mind, I set out to make an engaging and fun classroom for reluctant and passionate students alike.

Since then, I have taught and tutored high school English for eight years in diverse environments. My students and I have had so much fun while tackling difficult works of literature and intensive writing tasks. I love helping young people find and refine their voices. I am passionate about helping students become confident and clear communicators.

As a teacher, I specialized in taking the language arts (something some students dread and find boring) and helping students find their own passion in it. Beyond teacher-of-the-year nominations or department chair status, my proudest teaching accolades are the "favorite teacher" awards I have been gifted by my students, and I think that attitude shows in my teaching and tutoring.

I recently completed my M. Ed. at the University of Houston where I deepened my understanding of educational policies and college preparation. I intend to take these newly developed skills into my tutoring now." less...
