STEPS with Aubrey!

Specialized Tutoring, Education, & Parent Support

In today’s fast-paced world, it’s natural to want quick fixes and immediate progress, especially when we see our children struggling. However, meaningful skills that support children for a lifetime are built gradually, step-by-step.

At STEPS with Aubrey, I combine specialized tutoring with thoughtful educational planning to help children, adolescents, and parents make real, sustainable growth. I focus on identifying what each person needs and intentionally addressing every step of the learning process.

This philosophy is very personal to me. During moments of homework frustration or even when I faced more serious, overwhelming problems, my mother would often remind me of the quote by the Chinese philosopher, Lao Tzu: “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” While I didn’t always appreciate this advice at the time, it became one of the most powerful mindsets that guided my own educational journey and shaped how I taught my students.

Even when challenges feel too difficult, growth becomes possible when we break things down into manageable steps. Whether we’re building lifelong literacy skills, strengthening executive functioning and social skills, or developing practical strategies for everyday life, my goal is to help families build strong foundations that last.

I offer specialized tutoring for children and adolescents as well as education and support for parents:

“Thank you for everything you do. You have helped me so much over the years. I hope you keep up what you are doing for kids to be better as they grow like how you were with me. You will always be someone I will not forget that always told me to never give up. That will stay with me forever. You are just there to make anyone their best selves. You made me push to work harder even when I didn’t want to. You have had a big impact on my life to where I know I can do my best because I know if you were there by my side still you would be there cheering me on. You made me be able to feel normal in school.”

From Colleagues

“Aubrey is an extraordinary educator – the kind of person every parent would wish for if they found their child in need of special education services and the kind of teacher every child deserves in their corner. She understands the complexity of the needs these children face, and she has a stunning way of making each person involved in the process, from her colleagues to students and their families, feel like they are her singular focus. She makes a vulnerable new world accessible to families, and I have witnessed time and time again how she has set these students up for incredible success. She is a life-changing educator.”

-A., Colleague

From Parents

“Thank you for all of your extra time and work with [my child] this year! He enjoys all the extra time he gets with you to focus on things he needs! We truly appreciate it!”

-S., Parent

“Working with Aubrey during remote learning sessions provided me a unique opportunity to observe just how amazing an educator she is. She is kind, patient, and has the most remarkable way of encouraging struggling students without the slightest hint of being patronizing. Working with students such as my daughter, with a myriad of different learning styles and abilities is an extremely challenging task. Aubrey clearly has the perfect heart and skills to help these kids shine and do their very best. She is amazing at addressing each student’s needs and is gifted at keeping highly distractible students on task. She brings a positive energy to her small groups and classroom that make students adore working with her.”

-M., Parent
