About Shay

Empowering students to realize their own potential is at the heart of my teaching practice. With two years of experience, I specialize in supporting students with diverse learning needs by simplifying complex language and utilizing hands-on manipulatives to make math concepts click. I hold certifications in Individualized Education Programs (IEP) and Student accommodation plans (504), which allow me to tailor every lesson to the individual. I assess your unique learning style through active observation, ensuring I adapt my strategies to keep you engaged and motivated. By breaking down difficult tasks into manageable steps and celebrating every small victory, I help build the confidence necessary for long-term success. I prioritize clear, open communication with families to ensure we are always aligned. I truly love witnessing that "aha" moment when a student realizes they are capable of mastering anything they set their mind to.
