Academic Coaching
I design an engaging individual curriculum to meet the needs of your student without over burdening their already busy schedule. I will foster critical and creative thinking skills by creating analysis, argument, and narrative writing assignments and authentic projects that supplement instruction that your student is not receiving or to complement skills and topics that are being discussed in class. I take a Project Based Learning/Concept Based Learning approach when teaching Humanities and Math so that students will remain engaged and motivated to reach their highest potential.
Tutoring
I support students through their completion of school projects, assignments, and writing tasks and work with students so that they become more resourceful, accountable, and confident. When students have challenges during any assignment or project, I take advantage of this teachable moment to build confidence in the student or to review or reteach concepts and skills learned in the classroom.
Executive Functioning/ Study Skills/Organization
Working with parent(s)/guardian and student, together we will craft an organizational plan to meet all class due dates and deadlines and a family calendar to make study time and work completion fun and effective. I teach diverse learners to use and keep an assignment book or task sheet, to chunk writing tasks and multi-step projects, and to use virtual learning platforms.
College Essay Prep
Together, we will work through the writing process to arrive at a well-written, engaging college essay that will leave the admission’s office wanting to read more.
SAT Prep
Students will be confident in their abilities prior to taking the SAT as we build test taking strategies and focus on solidifying verbal and math skills.
Consulting
I consult with families and evaluate students’ writing skills to determine the level and type of support needed.
