I am a graduate of the University of Vermont with a Bachelors' Degree in General and Special Education. I attended St. John's University for my Master's Degree as a Reading Specialist. I am certified in General Education, Special Education and Reading, Pre-K through 12th grade and have been teaching for about 20 years now. Through my career, I have have had the opportunity to work in all grades, pre-K through 12th grade as either a Reading or Special Education teacher. My understanding of how children learn and grow as students has enabled me to support many students in many different areas of education. As a special educator, I work in all the content areas: Math, Science, Social Studies and English. I provide my students with study skills and comprehension strategies in these core areas of school. As a Reading teacher, I am experienced in providing strategies to increase reading comprehension, as well as decoding skills and strategies, word knowledge and vocabulary development. I also address writing skills and strategies to enhance my students' ability to approach writing in an organized and effective way. I have experience with, and continue to be trained in the NYS Common Core Curriculum. I work extensively with students in preparing them for the ELA state exams, 3-8th grades. I am a mother of 3 children and understand how busy life is for everyone. As the curriculum becomes more challenging for our children who may already be overwhelmed with homework and exams, a little extra support can make a big difference in their confidence and self-esteem. My patience, experience and knowledge of how children learn and grow in reading, writing and academics is a great asset to my students.
