I offer a wide range of educational services, including individualized classes and tutoring, for students of all ages.
My experience teaching sixth-grade ELA, providing academic support for students in grades 7-9, and coaching English language learners, fits well with my previous career as a mental health professional. I bring an elevated level of awareness and empathy to an online classroom.
Effective tutoring is a mix of providing students with the right balance of inspiration while supporting their current academic needs. I enjoy helping students and families determine a course that is best for them.
