About Chaka

I am a mom of two and homeschool my youngest child on the autism spectrum for the past 10 years. I have been tutoring for 16 years. I love when students make the connection and have that”light bulb” moment. I hope to help make a difference in even the smallest way to help students triumph over their educational obstacles. With a focus on personalized instruction, I create engaging, practical lessons tailored to each learner's needs.
