About Lori

Unlocking a student's potential is my greatest passion. With four years of experience in elementary education, including specialized support for students with diverse needs, I create a patient, engaging environment where curiosity thrives. I move beyond simple memorization to foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills. By observing how you interact with new material, I tailor my approach--using visual aids, hands-on activities, or guided discussions--to suit your unique learning style. I prioritize clear communication with families to ensure we are a collaborative team. Whether we meet at your home, the library, or a local coffee shop, I celebrate every "aha!" moment and small victory along the way. Seeing your confidence grow as you master English, music, drama, or dance is what fuels my dedication to teaching. I look forward to building a supportive partnership that makes learning truly enjoyable for you.
