I have been teaching for 11 wonderful years and was recently awarded with the 2024-2025 Teacher Of the Year accolade. To say that I was overjoyed and humbled by this honor would be an understatement. I have experience in all topics for pre K through 3rd grade including Math, Science, and Reading. Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of teaching in Georgia and have received my Masters of Arts in Education degree. I am also a Certified birth through Kindergarten teacher, which means I have specialized training in teaching young learners. I understand that each child learns in their own unique way and I strive to create a personalized and engaging learning experience for each of my students. In fact, I love to use engaging backgrounds and relatable ideas during my sessions with kids. So if your child loves cars, I may use a slide where they can count cars while learning math! As an educator, I believe that making learning fun and enjoyable is crucial for the success of my students. Outside of teaching, one of my hobbies is listening to music and trying new coffee shops. I am looking forward to getting to know your child and their unique learning style as we embark on this learning journey together.

K - 3rd

Available Mon, Wed, Fri

Can support: ESL, Speech

I have been a teacher for 14 years and have experience teaching Kindergarten, 2nd grade, and 3rd grade. I have a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Elementary Education and I am certified in LETRS. I have been lucky enough to have had the opportunity to teach in North Carolina, where I have helped many kids develop a love for learning. In my online sessions, ensuring that your child is engaged and having fun is my top priority. I believe the best way to teach is through building relationships and incorporating learning games and activities. With my years of experience, I have found that a positive and encouraging environment is key to a successful learning experience. I also use check-ins and little quizzes to monitor your child's progress and make sure they are grasping the material effectively. Outside of teaching, my interests and hobbies include reading, baking delicious treats, and DIY crafts. I am a true homebody and love spending time with my family and friends. These interests influence my teaching style and methodology as they allow me to bring creativity, patience, and a personal touch to my sessions. I believe that learning should be enjoyable and relatable, which is why I strive to make each session unique and tailored to your child's interests and learning style. Let's embark on this learning journey together and see how far your child can go!

Expert 1st grade spelling support, built around your child

First grade spelling builds on phonics — children learn common spelling patterns, sight words, and how to apply phonics rules to spelling. Struggles with spelling often reflect gaps in phonics understanding.

At Dojo Tutor, our 1st grade spelling tutors work 1-to-1 with your child to build skills and understanding. Whether it's phonics patterns, sight words, or spelling strategies, sessions target your child's specific needs with systematic instruction.

With personalized support, your child can develop the spelling skills that support reading and writing success.
