Credentialed educator
High school assistant principal
As a high school assistant principal and credentialed educator, I understand the academic expectations students encounter as they move through school. I help younger students build the foundations they will need and support middle school and ninth-grade students as their coursework becomes more demanding.
My approach is personal and collaborative. I take time to understand each student’s strengths, areas of difficulty, and goals so that our sessions address the skills that matter most.
Select a grade range to explore common learning goals across English, math, and science. Your child’s current understanding helps guide where to begin.
I adapt explanations, practice, and pacing to your child’s current understanding. Clear goals guide each session, while targeted instruction addresses learning gaps.
I check understanding regularly, adjust instruction as needs change, and share progress with parents so families know what we are working on and where practice will help.
I encourage students to explain their reasoning, ask questions, and try different approaches. Study routines and school leadership experience inform preparation for middle and high school.
My tutoring supports California grade-level expectations and the skills students use in school and beyond.
