About Deana

Empowering students to reach their full potential is at the heart of my teaching practice. With 10 years of experience as a certified teacher, I specialize in helping elementary and middle school students master Math, English, and study skills. I hold a college degree and am trained in implementing 504 student accommodation plans to ensure every learner receives the support they need. I assess your child's unique learning style through active listening and varied strategies, such as visual aids and hands-on activities. By connecting complex concepts to real-world interests and breaking problems into manageable steps, I foster both confidence and critical thinking. I value open communication with families to ensure we are always working toward the same goals. Nothing brings me more joy than witnessing that "aha!" moment when a student finally masters a challenging skill. I look forward to supporting your child's academic journey.
