About Toni
I have worked in different capacities in education since 2010, including as a college professor, a tutoring lab manager, and a tutor. I graduated with honors from the University of Dallas with a bachelor's degree in English and a concentration in Latin, and went on to complete a master's in English at the same institution. My work at UD emphasized writing in all courses, and helped me to develop a writing practice that is broadly applicable to many different disciplines. I then attended Southern Methodist University to complete a second master's degree in English. My work on my degrees spanned literature from Homer's Odyssey to the poetry of Seamus Heaney, and everything in between.
Since leaving college, I have taught at two different community college districts, with courses including composition, literature, developmental writing, and research. My favorite course to teach still remains British Literature, a survey course of major works from Beowulf to Virginia Woolf. In my first position, I spent time as a tutor with the college's faculty-run writing lab and was later promoted to the tutoring lab manager, where I trained fellow faculty in tutoring best practices. In my current position, I hold the rank of assistant professor of English, and I also serve as the lead facilitator for a professional development program focused on active learning.
I began tutoring while working on my graduate degrees, and I have worked with established companies such as Kumon and Victory Prep, as well as tutoring privately. My role as a tutoring lab manager helped me to deepen my understanding of tutoring as a profession.
No matter the age of the student or the subject at hand, you can trust that I have the skills to guide you to success.

Ready to guide your own learning experience as you explore literature? Come join me to explore the wonders of language and delve into the role literature can play in the world around us and in your life!
Whether teaching or tutoring, I use active learning techniques to help you take charge of and guide your learning experience. Typically my sessions begin with reviewing questions and content to identify where we want to take the session. We'll work on clarifying any confusion and then move into the next step in the process. Throughout, I will help you conceptualize the ideas you are uncovering, linking them to prior learning and helping you construct your own knowledge. Finally, at the end of the session, we'll take a few moment to process what you have learned and then look ahead to the next lesson.
Whether you're reading your first novel or you want to delve deeper into your third read through of Gulliver's Travels, I can help guide you through the writing process!
