Hi, I’m Ally.

I am a fully licensed educator with a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and over 15 years of experience teaching students from preschool through 12th grade.

I have taught in traditional classroom settings (preschool through kindergarten), led fine arts programs for 1st–12th grade, choreographed and directed children’s and teen theatre productions from Eugene to Portland since 2010, and offered private tutoring and voice lessons in my South Salem home studio for many years.

Education and performance have never been separate in my world — they inform and strengthen one another.

🌿 WHAT MAKES THIS STUDIO DIFFERENT

I believe students thrive when instruction is both structured and human.

My background allows me to:
• Understand child development deeply
• Teach academic skills with clarity and research-based practice
• Coach performance with confidence and precision
• Personalize lessons to each student’s strengths and goals

Whether we are building reading fluency, strengthening math foundations, shaping a college essay, or preparing for an audition, I bring the full range of my experience as both educator and performer into every session.

Lessons are thoughtful, focused, and individualized — grounded in professional expertise and delivered with genuine care.

Every student deserves to feel capable.

My goal is simple: to help students grow in skill, confidence, and voice — academically and artistically.
