About Me

I LOVE helping students feel confident and excited about learning. It's so rewarding to see students overcome their anxieties and discover the joy in education. My goal is to create a supportive environment where students can not only master the material but also have fun doing it. I earned my B.A. in English and my K-8 teaching credential in California, which gave me a solid foundation in teaching and understanding students' unique needs. I've had the pleasure of working with students across a wide range of subjects, including ESL/ELL, elementary and middle school English, math, science, social studies, reading, and writing. This diverse experience allows me to really connect with students at different levels and help them grow in a way that makes sense for them. Math is definitely my favorite subject to tutor. There's something so exciting about helping students realize they're "math people" after all. I love watching them go from feeling frustrated to confident as they start to understand the concepts and see how math can be fun and logical. It's incredibly satisfying to help students break through that barrier. My teaching approach is all about balancing big-picture ideas with practical, hands-on practice. I want students to understand the "why" behind what they're learning and then give them plenty of opportunities to put that knowledge into practice. Whenever I can, I connect lessons to the real world to show students how what they're learning can actually be useful. I also make a point to tailor my approach to each student's background and strengths, building on what they already know and helping them feel more confident as they move forward.
