About Kris

Empowering students to reach their full potential is at the heart of my teaching practice. With six years of experience in English, Special Education, and study skills, I specialize in helping elementary and middle school students build confidence and critical thinking skills. I believe that every learner thrives when provided with personalized support, so I adapt my methods--using visual aids, hands-on activities, or discussions--based on how you learn best. By breaking complex problems into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, I keep lessons engaging and productive. I prioritize open communication with you and your family to ensure we are always working toward your goals. Whether we meet at your home, a library, or online, I find the most joy in witnessing that "aha!" moment when a difficult concept finally clicks. I look forward to helping you grow and succeed on your unique educational journey.
