About Me

I am currently working as a 5th grade teacher at a charter school on the northside of Minneapolis. I spend my days teaching the core subjects (reading, math, social studies and science) to primarily ELL, or English language learning, students. I graduated from the University of Minnesota, Morris, in 2010, with a major in elementary education, and a minor in sociology. I have been teaching for the past five years in a few different cities around the US. I moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin after graduating and began my career as a teacher in the urban setting. After spending two years there, I moved to Tucson, Arizona, where I taught at an accelerated charter school with a focus on math and science. These diverse teaching experiences, as well as my current position, have taught me so much about how to best lead students to learn. I have many teaching strategies I love sharing with each student I meet, and value adding to my tool box with each session. My hope is to help students fill in any gaps there may be in their foundational skills, model strategies and tips for academic success, build confidence, and challenge students who need to be stretched. I am extremely patient, but I know how valuable our time together is. I will set clear expectations with each student I work with, so we both know what our job will be for each session. I will be sensitive to student's needs, but will do everything I can to keep us focused on the task at hand so this tutoring experience is valuable.
