Language Arts Tutoring
About
I have 10+ years in the field of education. I statred my career as a journalist. Through this profession, I met a clinical director. This director referred me to a struggling student who needed classroom assistance. From this point, I knew my path was to be an educator. I have worked with Special Education for 10 years as a Teacher's Assistant. I have spent one year as a Language Arts Mentor for the College of Education & Professional Studies at the University of West Florida. In Spring 2020, I will hold my B.A. in Educational Leadership from the University of West Florida
