...am currently working toward my Masters of Science in Education at Bank Street College of Education, where I am a student in the Reading & Literacy program. Currently, I am an elementary and middle school teacher in New York City. I have experience working with diverse student populations and believe that all students can become lifelong learners regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status. As a former fifth grade teacher and current fourth grade...

...not work with another. I've learned this over the course of 14 years of tutoring as well as classroom teaching experience. My students have come from a variety of backgrounds, including special needs, and I always work hand-in-hand with parents to identify where the student needs the most help. I've taught Spanish, Hebrew, Arabic, Writing, and resume/career skills, amongst other topics. I believe that for a student to truly succeed, he or she needs to...

...a Special Education minor as well as a Master of Arts in Counseling and an MBA. I have over 20 professional years advocating and giving a voice to the issues plaguing communities, 10 years in the classroom as a Substitute Teacher and countless years as a tutor.

...Health. Throughout my time in high school and college, I experienced being a tutor and tutee in a variety of courses.

I am a student at Cornell University proficient in both humanities and STEM subjects.

...I love the feeling of helping a young learner gain confidence and independence in their learning skills and subject matter. My personal philosophy is that any subject can be fun, we just have to figure out how to make it so! My personal style is to use what the learner is interested in to make the subject more fun! Who says you can't use Pokemon to teach math, Minecraft to teach science, or Percy Jackson...

...Accounting. While I now work as a Financial Analyst, my academic interests go beyond my fields of study; I also enjoy Writing, History, and French (among other subjects). I have always enjoyed working with and teaching others: in high school, I spent three years as a math and reading tutor at Kumon North America, and, more recently, I worked closely with WashU students as a Teaching Assistant (TA) for the Management Communication and Managerial Accounting...

...the use of primary texts and travel explorations has heightened my interest in these subjects. While I emphasize student-centered instruction (with ample opportunities for differentiation, modeling and scaffolding), I am also a firm believer in the inter-generational transmission of knowledge. Teachers/tutors/learning facilitators have just as much to learn from their students as the students do from them, especially as it relates to the use of new media technologies. All children can learn! All children are...

...and Sport Science. Since graduation, I have continued my studies, receiving a Master of Physiology from North Carolina State University.

...the stuff of life; understanding them, creating them, and most importantly, hearing them are what drive my passion and purpose. Good writing can take you far, but a good story brings everything near for the reader, and that's what every writer's goal should be. Whether you are writing poetry for the masses, or writing an essay for your high school english class, I believe that the result should be a closer understanding and connection between...

I specialize in providing special education services and support to children, parents...

...English/writing, reading, and elementary/middle school math. My individual teaching style is flexible, as I feel it is necessary to cater towards a students unique learning style and needs. I believe confidence and self-efficacy play pivotal roles in a students acquisition of knowledge and ability to learn new concepts. I believe it is crucial to provide encouragement, reinforcement, and support to help students realize their unique gifts and potential. In my free time, I enjoy reading,...

Learning is what goes on inside one's head and teaching is what goes on outside! In my experience this is true across ages and geography and subject matter. However, the tutor plays a critical role in success with the student. I believe it is the confluence of the relationship between the tutor and the student, the tutor's subject matter knowledge, and the methodology utilized that realizes the outcome.
