"I am a certified teacher with endorsements in English, History, and Special Education and training in the Orton Gillingham approach to reading instruction. I also have experience teaching in Algebra, Biology, and Earth Science classrooms. I am passionate about helping students find their path to success, especially when they lack confidence or don't recognize their own strengths. I particularly enjoy helping students who struggle with writing, math, and science.

To help students make sense of content, I look at the big ideas, the themes that run through the curriculum. I help students find the patterns in their coursework so that they can build a framework for understanding. I emphasize strategies that increase memory and problem-solving skills. Please reach out if you think I can help you or your child!" less...
