I’m thrilled to work with students and inspire them to make positive changes that will help them grow as individuals. I hold a B.A. in Speech Communications and a minor in Psychology. For the last ten years I have tutored children, teens, and have also taught classes at college level. In addition, I have offered personal growth workshops to teens that resulted in tremendous success. Some of the most popular workshops I have taught are in the area of self-confidence, reducing anxiety, happiness, and communication skills. I have also volunteered in non profit organizations that provide after school enrichment programs for elementary and middle school children. I look forward to the opportunity to partner with you in your teen’s success. Thank you.
