Carly
Certified Tutor
I feel lucky to have taught all over the world for the last decade. I am a certified General Education and Special Education Teacher for grades K-6 and have spent the last three years teaching in the public school system of Manhattan, New York. Prior to that, I taught math and English at a Private school and was honored to be the resident musical director for a children's theater company on the Upper West side. This summer, my husband and I moved to Oregon where we currently reside with our dog, Nina. Teaching is my passion and I am grateful every day for the ability to do so!
I believe in multiple-sensory education and using many routes toward the same goal. I use a process which relies on questioning and independent learning methods so my students reach the 'answer' in a way that is easily memorable and something they can take ownership of and be proud of! Given the opportunity I would gladly dive in to any subject and hope to teach a love for learning above all else!
Best wishes, and hope to speak with you soon!

What is your teaching philosophy?
It is my belief that everyone can learn! There is no limit to what an individual can do with the right mindset. Throughout my instruction, I not only teach my students the subject matter, but also the soft-skills they need to plan and organize their knowledge. With a focus on educational processes that build confidence and develop high-level thinkers and independent learners, I maintain one consistent thought driving my practice: "How can I help?" I believe that each student has a specific style of learning; a form of memory or a sensorial strength that best allows the information in. I aim to instill a lasting love for learning by modeling questioning techniques and a passion for the world of academia. Through open-minded discussion and outward respect, I create a motivational environment which best serves the students!
