"I hold multiple degrees in education and social sciences, including a Master’s degree in Criminal Justice Administration, a Bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education English, and a Bachelor’s degree in Children’s Studies Early Childhood Education. I also have additional undergraduate degrees in Criminal Justice, Paralegal Studies, and Business Management, along with graduate-level coursework in psychology. My academic background gives me a strong foundation in writing, critical thinking, research, and analytical skills, as well as a deep understanding of how students learn at different developmental and academic stages.

My teaching experience includes both formal classroom instruction and individualized academic support. I have taught English at the middle and high school levels, including working with students in special education settings, which strengthened my ability to adapt instruction to diverse learning needs. I have also supported college-level learners through tutoring, academic coaching, and coursework guidance in areas such as writing, reading comprehension, research, criminal justice, and study skills. Much of my experience has involved one-on-one instruction, allowing me to tailor explanations, pacing, and strategies to each student’s goals and learning style.

As a tutor, I focus on building confidence, clarity, and independence in my students. I emphasize practical strategies such as breaking down complex material, improving organization and time management, and strengthening written communication. I strive to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and developing their academic voice. My goal is not only to help students succeed in the moment, but also to help them gain skills they can carry forward into future coursework and professional settings." less...
