Meet Brianna

Brianna has had a passion for teaching ever since she began working in environmental education, where she led dynamic and enriching programs for grades K-12, both in the classroom and out in the field. For the past five years, she has also worked as a tutor and academic coach, specializing in supporting students with learning challenges such as Dyslexia, ADHD, Anxiety, and Autism.

Brianna is deeply committed to building strong relationships with her students, becoming a consistent and reliable part of their support team. She believes that getting to know what excites her students and how their minds work helps her tailor lessons to suit each individual’s learning style. By focusing on students’ strengths and showing them new strategies to overcome challenges, Brianna helps them regain confidence and rediscover a love for learning.

She loves seeing the moment when a student lights up after grasping a concept they previously struggled with and uses these moments to encourage them to keep pushing forward. Her goal is to create a safe, empowering space where students can feel proud of their progress and develop the skills they need for long-term success.
