About
Hello! My name is Ms. Rachel and I’m a certified educator specializing in reading and writing tutoring. Over the past 18 years I’ve taught, tutored, and mentored 200+ students in public, private, and charter school settings.
With experience as a classroom teacher for twelve years I know how to meet students exactly where they are and help them build both skill and confidence. I’m patient, structured, and encouraging, and I design sessions that target each student’s unique needs and learning style.
I believe every student is capable of academic success; they simply need someone who listens, understands, and creates an environment where they can rise to the occasion. If you’re looking for supportive, effective reading and writing help, I’d be glad to work with you.

We are so grateful to have connected to Rachel! She’s made online learning with us a breeze and we are so impressed with how much our daughter has learned so quickly. A true teacher at heart who loves what she does and makes your kids feel equally as loved. You won’t regret adding her to your child’s educational plans. Thank you for everything you do Miss Rachel!

Rachel brings a level of care and wisdom to the table that cannot be overlooked. She meets with our son at his level and guides him past his frustration of wanting to get it right the first time and into grasping the why behind the concept he’s learning. Equally, she’s taught my husband and I how to lead our son in the same way with simple steps and affirmations. Simply put, she’s our hero! Any parent or child would be blessed by her services.
