About Angela
I am an experienced professor, therapist, and mentor with a strong background in higher education and social work. Over the course of my career, I have taught at the college level, led adult education programs, and designed dual enrollment initiatives at public universities. My work has consistently focused on helping students succeed - from supporting first-year undergraduates to coaching students on academic probation or at risk of dismissal. My teaching and mentoring style combines structured learning with coaching approaches drawn from my therapeutic background. I incorporate motivational interviewing, CBT/DBT skill building, and academic planning to help students develop both the knowledge and the resilience needed to thrive. Whether guiding students through complex academic content, building strong study strategies, or fostering personal growth, I create a supportive and engaging environment tailored to each learner’s needs. I specialize in working with middle school, high school, college, and adult learners who want to strengthen academic skills, improve performance, or build confidence in their abilities. My goal is to help every student I work with unlock their potential and achieve lasting success.

Teaching Method & Techniques:
My approach is student-centered, meaning I adapt lessons to each learner’s goals, strengths, and challenges. I use a mix of guided practice, real-world examples, and interactive activities to keep sessions engaging. I also emphasize critical thinking and confidence-building, so students don’t just memorize material but truly understand it.
Typical Lesson Plan:
Check-in: Brief review of last session and questions.
Warm-up activity: Quick exercise to activate prior knowledge.
Core lesson: Step-by-step explanation of the day’s topic, supported by examples, visuals, or practice problems.
Practice & feedback: Student applies concepts with my guidance.
Wrap-up & preview: Summary of key points and a small task or reflection to prepare for the next session.
*Note: This is a sample plan. The actual structure of our lessons will be dependent on a student's unique needs and challenges.
What Sets Me Apart:
I bring both academic expertise and practical experience from my background in social work, higher education, and mentoring. This means I not only know the material but also understand how to motivate students, break down complex ideas, and adapt to different learning styles. I focus on creating a safe, encouraging environment where students feel supported and capable.
Who the Lessons Are For:
I work with middle school, high school, and college-level students, as well as adult learners, in areas such as writing, research skills, social sciences, and professional development. Whether you’re preparing for exams, writing papers, strengthening study habits, or deepening subject knowledge, I can provide structured, personalized support.
