Fun Facts
I Love Dogs. I have a little Chihuahua who is the boss and big brother to my big Cane Corso. I collect Funko Pops, and I love to dance.
About Me
My passion is teaching and mentoring high school and college students, first-generation college students, ESL youth and adults,and youth who are in or aged out of foster care to be academically successful and prepared to enter the workforce, trade programs,or higher education.
Experience
I have experience teaching reading, writing, and speech to ESL youth, adults, and college students. I have helped high school students in Detroit with reading, writing, research, and the successful completion of their Senior Capstone Projects and college applications. I have worked with students in developmental classes both in secondary schools and college to help strengthen their skills in reading, writing, history, literature, and public policy.
Approach
I am kind, empathic, and encouraging because I want my students to have a comfortable, motivating learning experience with me. I determine my student's proficiency levels in reading, writing, research, and their course materials, and I use a strength-based approach by building upon the academic skills they are strong in and have confidence in. I use a multiple intelligence approach by supplementing the learning experience with relatable multimedia literature/narratives and visual materials.
