About Kayla

Hi! I'm an experienced educator with 6 years of teaching students across all grade levels, specializing in English Language Arts (ELA) and English as a Second Language (ESL). Having ADHD myself, I bring personal insight and practical tips/tricks to support kids with ADHD-helping them stay focused, build confidence, and thrive through strategies like movement breaks, clear routines, multisensory activities, and breaking tasks into manageable steps. My teaching draws from systemic functional linguistics pedagogy, emphasizing how language functions in real contexts to make lessons meaningful and effective for reading, writing, communication, and academic success-especially for multilingual or neurodiverse learners. I create personalized, supportive sessions tailored to each child's needs and strengths. Passionate about helping every student succeed-let's work together!
