"I have over 11 years of teaching and tutoring experience working with children and adults across a wide range of academic levels. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in English with a concentration in Literature, along with graduate coursework in Literacy, Curriculum, and Education. I have taught in both charter and public schools in Texas, New York City, and upstate New York. My background includes teaching elementary and middle school English Language Arts, reading, writing, and literacy development, with an intentional emphasis on social emotional learning and social justice. I support students in building strong academic skills while also developing confidence, self awareness, and critical thinking.

Throughout my career, I have taught in classroom, small group, and one on one settings, including working with Gifted and Talented students in fourth and fifth grade. I have served as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and curriculum writer, which allows me to tailor instruction using research based strategies and individualized approaches. My tutoring style is structured, supportive, and student centered, with a strong focus on creating inclusive learning environments where students feel valued, respected, and empowered." less...
