About
Introduce yourself to new students:
Hello Parents and Adult Learners!
"Aim for Excellence!" Let's get those grades up to an A or B! A fresh start can change a child's future. Teaching takes patience, flexibility, enthusiasm, and so much more. For 18 years, I have taught PreK-12 and adult learners in English, Mathematics, science, history, and many other subjects. My tutoring sessions are educational, motivational, and practical. I encourage creativity and deep thinking so the brain sharpens with fun teamwork activities.
My teaching techniques change students' thinking to "I CAN DO THIS!" They are proud of what they have accomplished and learned along with confidence. I am a champion*! When I see children's faces light up, I know they have understood the subject. Every student has the potential to learn and achieve their academic goal with a little guidance and patience. A devoted tutor listens, evaluates, and observes students for additional help and support.
*Champion: Students deserve and see the best of you.

What do you enjoy about the work you do?
It is so rewarding to me to see a child's face light up when they have understood the subject.
