Hello. I'm creative, motivated, and dedicated to helping you. I find joy in teaching, counseling, and caring for others. I specialize in therapeutic practices, academic enrichment, and women's wellness. My BS degree is in Human Services with a Minor in Child Psych, and Masters is in Education. For the last 7 years, teaching and tutoring both general and special education has been a huge part of my life. Throughout my career, I've devoted my studies to mental health, family/children, and wellness, because I truly want to make a difference. I incorporate therapeutic approaches, such as behavioral management, into tutoring and homeschooling curriculum to balance the student's need for attention and focus on school work. We all deserve opportunities to break barriers and live in our full potentials. I'm eager to learn and grow with you.

    Mrs. Crystal was so kind and patient with my son! She broke down the basics and helped my son read. He is in high school but his reading level was elementary. She worked diligently and my son loves reading now and doesn't struggle. He is able to write paragraphs and text and it is incredible to see his confidence. Mrs. Crystal is highly recommended and she is the right fit for special needs children. She's makes kids happy to learn and helps them achieve the goals they set out together. She is a great teacher and so patient. Thank you for all your hard work!
