About Me
I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the memphis">University of Memphis in 2007. My GPA was 3.56. Teaching is my second career and it's the best thing I've ever done!! I am also ESL certified.
I have taught and tutored K-8 for several years. I currently teach 2nd Grade, including Reading, Phonics, English, Spelling Math and other subjects. I have taught other grade levels as well. Teaching is my passion and I love memphis">tutoring one on one!
I am very patient, loving and organized. When I memphis">tutor a student, I meet them where they're at. Although we work on the current skills that need to be enhanced, I also try to work in organizational and study skills as well. I like to use a variety of techniques, from working together on the board or finding interactive educational games on the computer. I believe working with kids one on one not only benefits students academically, but builds their self-esteem and gives them a sense of pride that carries over into other parts of their lives.
