"While I am licensed in all subjects PreK-6 and English and social studies for 6-8 grade, I was an 8th grade English teacher in Virginia for 15 years and a 6-12 teacher in Montana for 4 years. Throughout that time, I also tutored hundreds of students, providing tailored instruction to match their learning styles and abilities.

I am taking some time off from the classroom to help with family obligations, but I miss teaching,

While I have taught middle school and high school, I have tutored elementary, high school, and college students. I have worked with students of all abilities, and regardless of their initial ability level, I am confident that I can challenge and teach them. Although I personally excel in all subject areas, I specialize in tutoring grammar, writing, vocabulary, study skills/organization, and test prep. I have a unique approach to teaching grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure, which makes it easy for everyone to follow.

I have had students of all abilities in the past 19 years and have an excellent pass rate on standardized tests.

I began taking college classes (University of Kentucky) when I was in the 8th grade. I understand what it takes to balance study with athletics and family responsibilities because I have done it. I strive to teach in ways that maximize our time together and prepare students for what lies ahead. Teaching is my passion, and it's what I excel at." less...
