Experience
I have a lot of experience tutoring students of all ages from elementary to adult. I also have been a public school teacher for the last nine years working with middle, high school and adult learners. I have tutored students for AP classes, SAT, English, social studies and math. I have a lot of experience working with students regarding improving reading, writing and critical thinking skills. I have been trained on strategies to improve reading and writing skills. I recently moved here from the Washington D.C. Region where my students had a 100 percent pass rate on the state tests and my AP students had a 90 percent pass rate.

Hobbies
I am a caring and engaging teacher. I work hard to make the session both interesting and applicable to the student's life. I am flexible and willing to work with the student and parent to meet both of their needs. I love to read and love to encourage students to develop a love of reading! Learning should both be enriching and fun, which I try to make sure students gain a greater understanding of a subject and a new appreciation of its value.
