About Me
Partner with a tutor who is engaging, understanding, and clear is essential for effective learning. My goal is to embody these qualities for every student I tutor. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to teach every grade level from PK-8, as well as grades 9 and 11. Teaching runs in my family, with a lineage of educated women who have all earned their doctorates in education. Their achievements have inspired me, and I aim to "pay it forward" by inspiring the students I tutor. My ability to excel in tutoring the sciences stems not only from my teaching experience but also from my certifications. Between the states of TX and NJ, I am certified to teach all grades from K-12. I have earned credentials in early childhood education as well. These experiences and certifications have equipped me with a variety of strategies to meet the unique needs and learning styles of students at different academic stages. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Plant and Soil Science from the University of Maryland Eastern Shore and Michigan State University. My Master of Science in Biology and Doctorate in Science Education were both completed at Morgan State University. Currently, I am furthering my education through a Master of Science in Professional Counseling at Amberton University, which enhances my ability to support the emotional and mental well-being of my students alongside their academic growth. I specialize in tutoring middle and high school sciences, with a particular fondness for life science and biology. These subjects not only align with my academic background but also fuel my passion for exploring the wonders of the natural world and sharing that enthusiasm with my students. One of my first occupations after earning my master's degree was working as a scientist, an experience I thoroughly enjoyed. My teaching philosophy centers on the belief that every student can grow their learning with the right guidance, instruction, and support. I strive to create a safe and engaging learning environment where students feel valued and motivated to reach their goals. My ultimate aim is to make complex scientific concepts accessible and enjoyable for each student I tutor.
