"Welcome!
I believe taking the time to talk with a prospective tutor is the first (and very important!) step toward finding the best support for your needs and goals so I
encourage you to reach out to me and with any questions you may have.
In the meantime, thank you for taking the time to learn about me.
I am a neurobiologist by training and started tutoring back in the late nineties.
I loved it so much that I eventually left my research path, completed graduate level education, and shifted my focus to teaching and tutoring.
After completing my graduate coursework at UGA in 2011, I started teaching for a local school district and, when the opportunity arose, I transitioned to the role of Math and Science interventionist and independent consulting.
I regularly provide individualised support and guidance to students and their families in the Atlanta metro area (and even beyond, through the modern marvel of web conferencing!).
I have accepted both private and institutional assignments and I pride myself with repeat requests and referrals from satisfied families. I offer tutoring, one-one-one to small group teaching, homeschooling support and instruction for my fields and languages.
I also tutor and coach students preparing for standardised testing, SAT, PSAT, PPSAT, ISEE, and entrance tests required by various professional programs (UG, Graduate), TOEFL, and other English proficiency exams.
In addition to being trilingual English-Spanish-Italian, I have completed graduate level coursework on second language acquisition and the best methods in language instruction, and I have been teaching my languages since the mid nineties.
