Verde Valley Academic Mentorship & K–12 Homeschool Tutoring
Cottonwood, Arizona
About
My Mission I partner with Christian homeschool families to provide top-tier academic excellence with compassionate, character-driven mentorship. By blending rigorous standards with a gentle, trauma-informed approach, I ensure every student feels safe, seen, and supported to unlock their God-given potential. What Makes This Program Distinct I bring the standards of a Columbia University Ivy League Recruit, an International Scholar Laureate, and a Phi Theta Kappa member to your routine. But achievements mean nothing without service. Grounded in a Biblical Studies certification from Sedona International School of Ministry, my approach focuses on trauma-informed care and a "Going the Extra Mile - G.E.M. Award" philosophy of putting people first. As former Associate Director for the Cottonwood/Sedona Healing Rooms ministry, a local "Teacher of the Month," and a Cottonwood G.E.M. Award recipient, my commitment to going the extra mile is proven in our community. I bring this deep patience to students with unique learning differences or trauma-informed needs. The Families I Serve & Weekly Routine I serve families across the Verde Valley (Cottonwood, Camp Verde, Cornville, Clarkdale, & Sedona). I design flexible daytime sessions tailored to your schedule: K–5: Phonics, reading comprehension, and hands-on math to spark joy. 6–8: Pre-algebra readiness, formal essay structure, and independent study habits. 9–12: Advanced subject mastery, transcript enrichment, and college-prep mentorship. I remain a steady academic partner, communicating progress clearly so we can celebrate every breakthrough together.
