My lessons are designed to be engaging, structured, and tailored to each student’s individual goals and learning style. Whether you're preparing for an exam, improving your writing, or just trying to build confidence in a subject, I meet you where you are and help you get where you want to go.

Before each session, I will ask you for information on what you want to focus on, so that I can come prepared to help you. Before your session, I will use the information you give me to help craft a lesson plan.

Each session typically starts with a quick check-in to identify what you want to focus on that day. From there, I break down concepts in a clear, conversational way, using real-world examples and active problem-solving to deepen understanding. I often incorporate visual aids, structured outlines, or quick exercises to make abstract topics more tangible. Lessons are interactive, with plenty of opportunities for you to ask questions, practice skills, and reflect on what you’ve learned.

I’ve worked with students from middle school through college in subjects ranging from writing and test prep to STEM, and I especially enjoy helping students build strong study strategies and critical thinking skills. My background is in aerospace engineering and public service, so I bring both technical expertise and strong communication skills to the table.
