Fun Facts
Anyone who knows me knows that I am a giant dog lover!!! I own one dog right now and I love to spend time with her. I also love spending time at the lake and hanging out with my family!
About Me
I graduated from Pittsburg State University in December 2017 with a degree in elementary education. I am a licensed teacher and have had experience with a variety of age groups through my college courses and substitute teaching.
Experience
I have experience working with elementary students of various ages and abilities through my courses at Pitt State as well as through substitute teaching. My teaching license was obtained in January 2018. Frog tutoring would give me even more opportunity to assist students in their learning.
Approach
I believe positivity is the best way to teach or tutor. Attitude is contagious, and I think the best approach to take is one of enthusiasm and warmth. I believe that giving students the tools necessary to problem solve will ultimately help them be more successful.

Science Tutoring
Before I realized my passion was in teaching, I was in college to become a veterinarian.

I also have had the opportunity to teach science in my student teaching as well as substitute teaching experience.
Social Studies Tutoring
In my student teaching semester, I was tasked with creating a new unit for social studies. This gave me the opportunity to test how the students learn best in a subject that tends to be somewhat forgotten. I have also had experience teaching social studies while substitute teaching.

Homework Coach Tutoring
Along with study skills, being able to make it through academic material while outside the classroom is important to school success. Teaching methods of questioning as well as strategies for completing homework, without procrastinating, will help students increase their confidence.
