"As a certified English teacher with a Bachelor’s degree in English from Grand Canyon University and a Master’s in Secondary Education from Thomas More University, I bring a strong academic foundation and a deep passion for helping students grow as readers, writers, and critical thinkers. I am licensed to teach English in grades 5-9 and currently serve as a 9th Grade English teacher at Owen County High School. I’ve also taught 7th grade English at both Grant County Schools and Frankfort Independent Schools, giving me several years of experience guiding middle and high school students toward academic success.

My teaching experience has included traditional classroom instruction, small-group intervention, and one-on-one support both in person and online. I specialize in helping students build confidence in reading comprehension, writing skills, grammar, and literary analysis. My approach is student-centered and adaptive—whether it’s preparing for an essay, working through a challenging novel, or refining a college application. I focus on clear communication, personalized feedback, and consistent encouragement. I also have professional experience providing detailed editorial feedback on student writing using tools like Google Docs and Classroom.

I believe every student learns differently, and I’m committed to creating a supportive environment where learners can thrive. Whether you're seeking help with school assignments, test prep, or general literacy skills, I’m here to provide guidance that meets your unique needs." less...
