"Professionally, I hold a Bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Illinois. I returned back to U of I a few years later to obtain my teaching certification for grades 1-6. I have over ten years of experience teaching/assisting children in various subjects, most commonly math, at the elementary/early middle school level. I am currently a fourth grade teacher but taught several years of 6th grade math.

I have worked in both classroom settings and one-on-one environments, including private tutoring and volunteer programs.

I look forward to working with you and being part of your success!" less...
