About Carrie

Empowering young learners to reach their full potential is the cornerstone of my 10-year teaching career. As a Certified teacher with a Graduate degree, I specialize in foundational reading skills and Special Education for elementary students. I hold teaching certifications in VA and NC. My approach centers on building confidence and fostering a genuine love for learning rather than simple memorization. I assess your child's unique learning style by actively listening and observing how they interact with new material. When concepts become challenging, I bridge the gap by connecting lessons to their personal interests or real-world examples. Clear communication with both you and your student remains my priority to ensure a collaborative environment. Nothing is more rewarding than witnessing a student's confidence grow as they master new skills. I look forward to partnering with your family to help your child thrive.
