About Amanda
Navigating middle and high school English Language Arts (ELA) can be challenging—whether a student is trying to catch up on fundamental reading skills or aiming to master advanced college-prep essay writing. As an Illinois-certified ELA specialist with deep roots in both middle school classrooms and university English departments, I offer a unique perspective that bridges the gap between grade-school learning and college readiness.
Here is why families choose to work with me:
Deep Expertise Across All Levels: With master's degrees in Curriculum & Instruction, Educational Leadership, and Creative Writing, I don't just teach reading and writing—I understand how curriculum is built and how students learn best.
Proven Middle School & High School Track Record: Having taught 6th, 7th, and 8th grades in local districts like Peoria and Washington, I know the exact state standards, reading expectations, and writing modes (argumentative, expository, narrative, and analytical) your child encounters daily.
Insiders’ College-Readiness Advantage: Because I also teach college English at institutions like SNHU, Rasmussen, and Bradley University, I know exactly what professors expect. I help high school students cultivate the high-level research, critical thinking, and multi-draft revision skills needed to transition seamlessly to higher education.
Targeted, Data-Driven Support: I have extensive experience analyzing student learning data (MTSS) to diagnose specific reading and writing gaps. Rather than generic tutoring, I build individualized intervention plans tailored precisely to where your child needs help.
What Students & Parents Can Expect
Working with me is a supportive, encouraging, and highly structured experience designed to turn frustration into academic confidence.
For Students: What It’s Like to Work With Me
A Safe, Supportive Environment: Writing and reading out loud can feel vulnerable. I bring a strong focus on Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) to ensure our sessions are low-stress, encouraging, and constructive.
Multi-Sensory Learning: We all learn differently! Whether you are a visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learner, I adapt my instruction to match your preferred learning style—using interactive discussions, graphic organizers, and step-by-step drafting workshops.
Real-World Skills & Creative Spark: As someone with a background in creative writing and drama, I aim to make literature dynamic and writing engaging, helping you find your unique voice.
For Parents: What You Can Expect
Clear Communication & Scaffolding: You will see a structured, step-by-step approach. Instead of just "fixing" a paper, I teach students how to brainstorm, outline, draft, cite sources, and self-edit so they become independent learners.
Targeted Interventions: Whether your child needs help with reading comprehension, grammar fundamentals, essay structure, or advanced rhetorical analysis, every session is tailored to their specific needs and school goals.
Bridging the Gap: You gain a dedicated partner committed to helping your child close learning gaps, build grade-level mastery, and develop lifelong literacy skills.
