Welcome to the Literacy Laboratory!

​

I'm Rachel, a Southern California native and lifelong learner who grew up in the local public school system. I’ve seen firsthand how strong reading and writing skills can change a student’s path—and I’ve built my career around helping students develop those essential tools.

​

I hold a master’s degree in Reading, Language, and Literacy, along with a secondary education teaching credential and undergraduate degree—all earned through California State Universities.

 

For years, I’ve worked as a secondary English Language Arts teacher, and I’ve helped hundreds of students grow their confidence and skills in reading, writing, and communication.

​

At Rachel’s Lit Lab, I offer personalized tutoring that meets students where they are and challenges them to reach new heights.

 

Just like in a lab, we experiment, analyze, and discover the strategies that work best for each learner. My mission is simple: to help students become strong, independent readers and writers—ready to succeed not just in school, but in life.
