About Me

Professional Profile With a Master's in Education and 26 years of experience, I blend academic mastery with cognitive science. I specialize in ELA, Psychology, History, Algebra, and MLA/APA formatting, with a focus on Executive Functioning (ADHD) and Exam Prep (ISEE, ACT, TEAS, HESI, GED, GMAT). My Instructional Approach I don't just teach content; I teach how to learn. My methodology uses research-based strategies to strengthen memory and reduce test anxiety: Scaffolding: I provide patient, step-by-step guidance, breaking complex concepts into manageable milestones tailored to each student's pace. Cognitive Science: I integrate mnemonics and retrieval practice to turn information into lasting understanding. Strategic Writing: I guide students through the nuances of MLA and APA styles, ensuring their academic writing is polished, professional, and properly cited. I create an inclusive environment where students gain the mental tools and confidence to thrive as lifelong learners.
