INSTRUCTOR PROFILE:
I have a Bachelor of Science in Education degree with certifications in English and social studies, and a Master of Education degree in curriculum and instruction. I also hold a K-12 Reading Specialist endorsement.
I have been educating children for twenty-six years. In addition to tutoring, I have had the opportunity to work in both public and private schools. I have worked with students in grades six through twelve. I have had experience teaching English and history courses at the regular, honors and Advanced Placement level. I have also taught stand-alone reading, writing and study skills courses. I have been a high school College and Career program coordinator, and, in that role, I have taught college preparation courses and executive functions courses.
I believe the role of an educator is to facilitate the development of both content and executive functioning skills so that all students have the opportunity to become the best version of themselves. All students are capable of academic success when they are given the tools and support necessary to achieve that success. Once they experience that truth, they gain the confidence necessary to thrive in any academic setting. I appreciate having the opportunity to help students develop those skills that will support their success and build their confidence.
At Peak Academics, I offer executive functions coaching to students grades 6 and up.
