Maria Barajas

I deliver personalized one-on-one academic support, creating custom lesson plans that improve comprehension and test preparation.

With more than seven years as a critical care RN and experience as a substitute teacher, I tutor NCLEX-PN, NCLEX-RN, reading, math, and writing for learners from elementary through high school. I adapt instruction to individual learning styles, diagnose learning needs, and provide constructive feedback that builds progress and confidence.

As a bilingual educator, I support Spanish-speaking students and foster inclusive learning environments where students can express themselves and thrive academically and personally.

I'm preparing for a PhD in Curriculum and Instruction at Liberty University, and my teaching philosophy centers on self-efficacy, integrity, and helping students develop a love for academic success.
