About
My service is built on years of experience working one-on-one and in groups with students. I am a creative problem solver and love applying this skill in the education setting. I am a guide to help students not only increase understanding, but build self-esteem and establish tools they can use for success into the future.
Every student I’ve worked with is brilliant. It’s so exciting to see their potential and help them unlock it. The thing I love the most about my job is being able to help kids succeed despite the challenges they may have and in turn help them rediscover their love for learning. I love seeing them overcome obstacles and discouragement as they realize their ability to learn and master new concepts. Their excitement is contagious and motivates me to do all I can to help them have more of those confidence-building moments.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I offer a free consultation where I meet in person with the student and parents to discuss desired outcomes of the tutoring. We talk about scheduling, primary concerns, as well as the student’s goals and interests so I can plan activities to make learning personalized and exciting for that individual student. If possible, I like to meet with the teacher as well to discuss school performance and coordinate our efforts.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have over five years of experience as a private tutor. I also worked in public schools in Salt Lake City and Provo leading after-school groups as well as teaching resource and special education classes. My college studies have been focused on child development, psychology, and learning disorders with a focus on ADHD. I’m currently studying to become a certified ADHD Life Coach.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge $20 per hour. I typically do one-hour sessions unless, upon consultation, a shorter lesson is a better fit. I also charge an additional $5 per session if I travel to the student.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with a variety of students ranging from grades K-6. I’ve tutored students who just need a little support to build their confidence and understanding as well as students that struggle with learning disabilities and language barriers. Many of my students have struggled with ADHD, Anxiety, memory issues, Autism, Dyslexia, and other learning and reading disorders. Whatever their challenges may be, my students have found success and enjoyment in school.
