Hello!

I discovered that working with students was my passion while teaching English to 4th graders during my study abroad semester in Italy. Upon graduation from the University of Missouri, I joined Teach for America. After 7 years of teaching high school English at my placement school, Ive recently moved to Los Angeles. I now work as a literacy and English specialist, coaching middle school teachers, Assistant Principals, and Principals in bettering their instruction for students. Having taught AP Literature, AP Psychology and 10th grade composition, my greatest area of expertise is in high school literacy and writing. Additionally, I taught ACT and SAT bootcamps to 5 years’ worth of Juniors, I taught an Art Elective for four years, and now I work directly with middle school curriculum and students. In college, I worked as a peer tutor at the University’s Writing Center and was trained specifically in the field of tutoring. Now that I work more with school leaders, I’m hoping TutorMeLA will provide an opportunity to do what I most love–working directly with students.
