Experience

Teaching is my passion. Once I earned my Master's degree, I knew that I wanted to teach. Whether working one-on-one with students or teaching in adjunct positions both online and at a local college, I love helping students realize their potential and empower them to live their dreams. I specialize in English, reading, writing, and comprehension, Psychology, and Sociology. I have worked closely not only with mainstream students, but also with learning disabled children and adults in these areas to increase their skills. Having worked in specialized a learning center that catered to children and adults with learning disabilities for over 3 years combined with over 5 years experience tutoring teens with ADHD and mainstream college students one-on-one has allowed me to acquire a broad range of techniques meant to increase general academic performance, study skills, and proficiency in reading, writing, and comprehension. Whether you are aiming to simply do better in academics or are preparing for college entry exams like the ACT or SAT, my goal is to challenge students to their full potential by meeting the student where they are at and empowering them to utilize their strengths by applying a person-centered focus to achieve their goals. When you work with me, you can expect to be assessed in the areas in which you are seeking help. I understand that not all students learn in the same manner and through our interactions, we will develop a lesson plan catered to your needs and ways of learning. You will be given homework that will serve to further develop the skills you are seeking. I offer flexibility in times and locations. I am willing to travel to you for your convenience. I do prefer to work with students in a quiet space, free of interruptions. I look forward to hearing from you and forging a personal relationship where your goals can be achieved!
