Helping Students Thrive for Over 26 Years.
With over 26 years of teaching experience in the Toronto Catholic District School Board, I bring both deep classroom expertise and a compassionate, personalized approach to tutoring. My teaching philosophy is simple: every student can succeed with the right guidance, support, and confidence-building strategies.
Highlights of Teaching Journey
I’ve taught students from kindergarten through high school, across every subject and division. I specialize in English, Test Preparation, and Special Education Support.
Elementary & High School
I worked across both the elementary and high school levels, teaching Grades 3 through 8 with a strong focus on literacy, numeracy, and test preparation. I also served as a Health and Physical Education teacher (JK–Grade 8), including classes with multiple exceptionalities, where I encouraged wellness, physical literacy, and lifelong healthy habits. In the summer months, I taught Language and Health & Physical Education in Multiple Exceptionality programs, designing lessons that engaged and supported diverse learners. These experiences gave me a strong foundation in helping students grow academically, physically, and personally at every stage of their development.
EQAO & Literacy Test Prep
Extensive experience with EQAO and Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test preparation — developing proven strategies, resources, and practice methods.
Individual Education Plan
For the past 12 years, I worked in a hospital-based program supporting students who couldn’t attend their regular schools due to health challenges. In small classes and one-to-one settings, I helped each student follow an individualized education plan — building both academic skills and confidence. This gave me extensive experience in private, individualized instruction, which I now bring directly to tutoring.
