With over 15 years of experience teaching middle and high school science, I bring both passion and dedication to helping students succeed. My background includes teaching a wide range of science and math subjects, working with multicultural learners, and supporting ESL students across all age levels. I believe in making science engaging and thought-provoking—encouraging students to ask questions, think critically, and truly understand the world around them. Beyond the classroom, I’ve also coached athletics and conducted school bands, which gives me a well-rounded perspective on student learning, motivation, and development. Whether it’s during class, after school, or even over lunch—my open-door policy reflects my commitment to supporting students whenever they need it. My goal is simple: to inspire curiosity, challenge students intellectually, and foster growth in every learner I work with. If you’re looking for a tutor who is experienced, approachable, and deeply invested in student success, I’d love to help.
