"In my literacy tutoring practice, I specialize in personalized instruction tailored to each student’s unique strengths and challenges. I provide diagnostic assessments, evidence-based instruction, and progress evaluations to ensure measurable growth in areas such as phonics, reading comprehension, writing, and vocabulary development. I am passionate about fostering a love of learning in students while building their confidence and autonomy as readers and thinkers.

As an English teacher, I have extensive experience working with students across a wide range of abilities, from foundational learners to advanced placement high achievers. My approach to tutoring focuses on more than just improving literacy skills—I encourage goal-setting, independence, and self-directed learning. My mission is to inspire students to become active participants in their own education while equipping them with practical skills that can be applied across subjects and real-world situations. Literacy is critical to success in life. In addition to teaching, I have led workshops on modernizing classroom practices to improve student achievement and am a strong advocate for pedagogy that prioritizes student needs and a learner-centered approach.

Currently, I am an English teacher at a high-performing high school in northern New Jersey. I hold a BA in English Education and a Masters in Literacy. With fourteen years of classroom experience, I am committed to helping students of all ages reach become lifelong readers and learners." less...
