About
I love teaching! It's not what I do, it's who I am and I live for the "Ah HA!" Or "light bulb" moment in students!
I love being able to facilitate learning in a way that brings confidence to the learner. Interacting with students of all kinds keeps me grounded as well as on my toes with the reminder that we are all so different! What an awesome thing!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to get to know the student's specific needs and what they feel are their deficits and strengths first. Knowing what they are great at will help me lead them to grasp whatever they are struggling to comprehend!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a high school teacher who has taught foundations of Biology, biology, biology 2, zoology 1 & 2, Mississippi studies, world geography, genetics, and foundations of science literacy. I am certified to teach English, history and science K-12 and math K-6. I am also certified to serve students with mild to moderate disabilities. I have my masters in secondary education with a focus on science and I am currently pursuing a master in Biology.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have taught and tutored students of all ages and levels!
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I love the moment when a student has the lightbulb go off after a lot of time spent doubting themselves.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Be specific about what you are struggling with! We know the content well, but we don't know you well yet!
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
What are your strengths in education (Studying habits, making flash cards, remembering processes or pictures well) and what are your struggles (numbers, defining terms, remembering names)?
