Students/Parents & Guardians

What I can offer:

As an educator and administrator being integrally involved with student learning and student support teams, I have learned and can help navigate the challenges that many students face with time management, distractibility, goal setting, and self advocacy.

As a parent of my own children, I realize that knowing what to do with your own kids, regardless of how successful you were at school, is a uniquely perplexing puzzle.

It is important to me to stay current with novel research and best practices for learning and the brain that is developmentally appropriate. I make it a point to stay current on best practices and share what I'm reading/listening to with parents to come up with appropriate systems and coping strategies.

I am well equipped to stand in between parents, students, and teachers to allow for a healthy dynamic between parties to achieve desired goals.

Specifically I can:

• help students prioritize, organize and strategize

• work with students and parents to streamline online learning management platforms

• assist, guide, support student/parent/teacher communication

• assist with test prep, study skills acquisition

• consult and coach students on effective time management and planning processes.

• coach students with ongoing goal setting/reflection practices

Students

What I can offer:

I have taught middle school, high school, and collegiate level science courses. I have ample experience working with students of varying degrees of aptitude and interest in various science subjects.

I really love teaching science and my main focus has always been to emphasize patterns, point out practical applications of knowledge, and connect students to the content (even if tangentially) to make the material more meaningful.

Science thinking, learning, skills are essential and I think steering kids away from the details the specifics and the memorization helps them to see the beauty of the content versus seeing it as a chore to memorize.

Specifically I offer

• in person/virtual tutoring sessions

• homework help

• enrichment opportunities

Content expertise:

• General Chemistry

• Organic Chemistry

• AP Chemistry

• Neuropsychology

• Medicinal/Pharmaceutical Chemistry

•  Environmental Science

• Physical Science

• Biology

• Test prep

• Science writing
