Bio
Hi there! I am so excited to introduce myself and be your online tutor! I am a certified K-6 educator with 16 years experience specializing in reading, elementary math, and English as a Second Language. I have helped students move from "I don't get it" to confidently tackling fractions, decimals and problem solving math problems like a champ. I believe every learner thrives when instruction is engaging, personalized and rooted in encouragement. My approach blends structured literacy, language development and hands-on strategies to build confidence and mastery. My teaching personality is a mix between a cheerful motivator and a patient coach. I create a safe space where mistakes are part of the plan, growth is always celebrated and every student feels seen and capable.
