About
I am very passionate about making a difference in our youth and our upcoming generation. I have been doing private tutoring services since I was a junior in high school and continued this route into adulthood. I am a recent graduate of Georgia State University with a Bachelor degree in Global Studies with a minor in Linguistics, along with my TEFL certifications to teach english. I also graduated with Global Scholar disctinctions. I have experience also being a mentor of children by volunteering with the Big Brother Big Sisters of Atlanta and expericne with SAT/ACT prep as well as teaching classes surrounding all of those subjects. All of the above have given me the skills and abilities to really transfer and share my knowledge with children of all ages in a way that they can receive it and also be excited to learn!
I love that I am able to tailor my services to each indiviual's need. Everyone learns in a different way, and as a tutor and teacher it is important to recognize this and be able to pivot as needed. I am grateful that I had this calling and I am able to actually make a difference in my community and in the world! You never know what one of your students might grow up to be, and to know that you had a part of that is so rewarding and fulfilling. I wouldnt trade it for anything.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to ask the student as well as the parent(s) what are their goals for our sessions and what do they want to achieve. I also like to ask them what do they expect from me as a tutor. I like to make the student comfortable with me as to make sure they are asking any questions that they may have during our sessions to ensure that they are understanding what we are doing and are constantly making progress.
