I find it extremely rewarding to help students achieve their goals, gain confidence, develop skills, and learn subjects in a new way. I have over 5 years of experience teaching in public school classrooms and over 10 years experience homeschooling my own 4 children (some with their own unique learning needs). I believe every child has the capacity to learn; it is important to discover their individual learning styles, interests, and motivations to best help each one on their educational path.

Reading, music, exercising, spending time with family and friends, baking, hiking and occasionally camping
