Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I begin by ascertaining the goals of the parent and student, which will inform the course of the tutoring program. I will then give a diagnostic to assess the needs of the student. At that point, I create an individualized instruction plan tailored to the student's needs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
6-8th grade Social Studies and Reading teacher, KIPP New Orleans Schools (2 years experience)
K-3rd reading intervention specialist, Dallas ISD schools (1 year experience)
K-5th conflict resolution instructor, NYC Public Schools (4 years experience)

What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students ages 4-14 in both a traditional classroom setting and in one-on-one intervention. I serve general education students (looking for either remediation or enrichment) and special education students. For special education students, I have experience tailoring academic offerings to IEP and 504 Plan requirements.
