Personal Tutoring Across the Conejo Valley
Thousand Oaks is a big city with a lot of great schools, and every classroom moves at its own pace. Tutoring gives your child something a classroom can’t always offer: one adult, one child, and a plan built entirely around them.
I work with Thousand Oaks and Newbury Park families from my home base in nearby Agoura Hills. Sessions focus on real skills, like sounding out tricky words, reading with understanding, writing clear sentences and making sense of math.

Supporting Conejo Valley Unified Students

I work with students from schools across the district, including Aspen, Glenwood, Lang Ranch, Wildwood, Weathersfield and Acacia in Thousand Oaks and Banyan, Cypress, Maple and Walnut in Newbury Park, as well as private schools like St. Paschal Baylon.
Solid reading and math skills now make the jump to middle schools like Colina, Los Cerritos, Redwood and Sequoia much easier.
