About Ashley

Hello! I'm Ashley, a passionate 5th-grade teacher with a zest for igniting curiosity in young minds. With a background in education and a love for the outdoors, arts, and literature, I bring a unique blend of joy, intentionality, and creativity to my tutoring sessions. Outside of the classroom, you can often find me exploring hiking trails, dabbling in arts and crafts projects, or immersed in the pages of a captivating book. These hobbies not only rejuvenate my spirit but also inspire my teaching approach. In my tutoring sessions, I strive to create an environment where learning feels like an exciting adventure. I believe in the power of metaphors and visuals to unlock new perspectives and deepen understanding. One of my greatest joys is witnessing the "aha" moments when my students grasp a challenging concept or make a connection. I prioritize building strong connections with my students, cultivating a space where they feel comfortable taking risks and embracing challenges.
