Undergraduate research assistant in Literacy Development Among Diverse Learners (LDDL) Lab, Arnold School of Public Health- Communication Sciences and Disorders. Worked in collaboration with Lexington 2 School District and Riverbank Elementary to provide diagnostic testing for communication disorders to over 200 students ages 5 - 7. Assessed students using the BESA and CLOZE test to evaluate bilingual learners and work with school members to provide early interventions to students. While providing assessments to students, our research lab was simultaneously testing the accuracy and validity of the tests on bilingual learners. Most communication disorders diagnostic testing was designed for monolingual learners and bilingual learners have been historically over-diagnosed or under-diagnosed with communication disorders. While working at the LDDL lab, I was able to present the partnership model at South Carolina Speech Language Hearing Association conference in 2020 in order to inform SLPs and researchers on learning environment supports and language supports to assist all bilingual learners in schools.I created user-friendly content for teachers and parents of bilingual learners to support the growth and language development of bilingual learners.

Worked with the Student Success Center at the University of South Carolina to provide to tutoring to over 100 undergraduate students in high need classes including Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Molecular Biology, Physics, and Business Calculus. Utilized instructional strategies to optimize learning of tutees and formatively asses current levels of understanding while providing interventions to sustain growth and independent learning. While providing one-on-one tutoring, I spearheaded the small group tutoring program which gave weekly scheduled lessons to groups of 8-10 students in order to support the success of students in the high needs class of Organic Chemistry. Students from small group tutoring demonstrated mastery by taking weekly quizzes and surveys to assess their learning and express where they needed more support.
