Rebecca: East Orange tutor

Certified Tutor

My passion comes from starting out in school myself as a struggling student. I always had the ability but didn't have the opportunity to show it. I love having a part in helping to unlock any child's potential to succeed. I went to Kendall College and received my BA in Early Childhood Education with a concentration in special education. I am 3 classes away from having my masters in special education. I started working with preschool age children but have experience with kindergarten through 12thgrade in the public school setting. I have also worked in a middle school self contained room as a paraprofessional. I worked with middle school and high school girls in a group home setting as a learning coach while they attended school on campus through K12. My current role at my job is working as a resource teacher for behavioral children k-12. My goal is to use what interests you most and mix it with what you are learning. Show you your learning is in your life everyday with things you relate to.

Family time is my favorite time. I have 3 kids, all girls. My oldest is 16 years, then 12 years, and finally 4 year. We love everything outdoors. We play a lot of sports but mostly basketball and soccer. I have a cat, dog, and bearded dragon. If I could own a zoo I would. I love animals and interacting with them.
