SERVICES

Private Teacher

I help your child with certain academic subjects, help to develop good study habits, and teach test-taking skills.

Writing Coach

I can teach your child how to write well! I begin with the basics of learning how to answer a question completely and appropriately to writing a 5-paragraph essay, with citation skills.

Mindfulness Camp

Join me and my colleague, Laura Jaramillo, this summer for our first Mindfulness camp! We’ve developed a 7-week program.

Let’s watch together

Watch and learn all about the public school system in Miami-Dade County through these short, informative, and fun videos! I break down each chapter of my book, concisely, to make it easy for you!

Yep…you read that correctly. I read an article where teachers were compared to battered wives and the school system is the abuser. It’s not that far off, as I came to realize. Teaching is a white, female dominated profession. And some argue this is why we are so undervalued and underpaid.
Teachers are “on” all day at school. Teaching demands a special level of energy that I’ve never experienced before. The burnout is REAL and and happening more than ever. 
Let’s talk about 💰!!! I compare a teacher’s salary to other professional salaries to highlight the disparity. Teachers can only afford the bottom 9% of housing in Miami 😱
