About

I grew up in Oregon and graduated from UC Riverside with a BS in business. I have been an accredited instructor with IEW since 2011 and am certified at the Master’s level in Barton Reading and Spelling.

Realizing the overwhelming need for tutors in writing and dyslexia instruction, I founded my tutoring business, Interactive English Instruction. Over the years I have worked with families from all over the United States as well as far flung regions such as Saudi Arabia and Israel. I also taught language arts at a co-op homeschool academy for ten years.

I homeschooled  my children in Delaware where I currently reside with a husband, a dog, and a bevy of backyard birds.

When I'm not tutoring or enjoying coffee with friends, I relish reading just about any genre, listening to podcasts while exercising, volunteering for English as a Second Language( ESL) at my church, gardening, and watching the sun rise.
