About

I am a student-centered educator with a Master’s in Guidance, Special Education, and Administration from Southeastern Louisiana University. I bring over twenty-five years of classroom teaching and two years of one-to-one tutoring. My personal experience overcoming a severe childhood language disorder informs my practice with empathy persistence and evidence-based strategies. I have served learners across regular and special education as well as clients in substance abuse clinics and mental health settings.

Tutoring philosophy

- Relationship first: I build trust and psychological safety so learners feel seen and supported

- Data-informed instruction: I use diagnostics progress monitoring and goal setting to tailor lessons

- Strength-based approach: I leverage interests and prior knowledge to boost engagement and confidence

- Explicit strategy instruction: I teach metacognitive routines self-advocacy and study skills that transfer

- Culturally responsive practice: I adapt materials language and examples to each learner’s context

Who I support

- K–12 students needing targeted support in reading writing math and executive function for grade-to-grade progression

- Adults pursuing literacy GED and workforce readiness including resume writing workplace communication and numeracy

- Cadets and public-safety trainees building report writing conflict de-escalation scenario-based communication and test preparation

Specialized expertise

- Language and literacy: phonemic awareness decoding fluency morphology vocabulary comprehension structured writing

- Special education supports: IEP-aligned goals accommodations progress tracking behavior supports and parent collaboration

- Social-emotional learning: self-regulation growth mindset and resilience skills integrated into academic tasks

- Transition skills: study planning time management note-taking test-taking and real-world communication

How I individualize

- Initial intake: strengths interests current challenges and goals

- Screening: quick checks for reading math and executive skills to locate skill gaps

- Plan: 6–10 week roadmap with measurable targets and session routines

- Instruction: short explicit lessons guided practice cumulative review and application to authentic tasks

- Feedback: clear next steps and at-home micro-practice to build independence

Measurable outcomes I target

- Reading: accuracy rate and comprehension gains with weekly fluency and retell checks

- Writing: organization sentence fluency and mechanics using single-point rubrics

- Math: fact fluency error analysis and problem-solving strategies with mixed review

- Executive function: on-time task completion organized materials and improved study cycles
