...all four subjects needed to pass those exams. Four years of high school knowledge seems like an overwhelming amount to tackle. But unlike exams you may have taken in the past, the tests don't want memorization of times and places but the use of evidence to answer questions and draw conclusions. The math is around 55% algebra so that might need some review, but it is mostly Algebra 1 and, I promise, is manageable. You...

...willing to be a great learner. All the great teachers that I have met were flexible, kind, and learners themselves. I try to bring these qualities to every class I teach. As a teacher for almost 13 years, I also believe it is important to adapt and change what you teach based off of your student's strengths and learning styles. Making each teaching experience unique to the person you are teaching will help to make...

...high school English, writing, and history, as well as test prep for the PSAT, SAT, and ISEE/HSPT. As a tutor and writing teacher (as well as a student myself) I think the best outcomes are achieved when students are really engaged with the material at hand and have an investment in understanding it.

...on a profession, I finally listened to my heart to become a teacher. In the three years since, I have taught high school English and earned a Master's degree in the Humanities. Teaching and learning are where I belong. Since high school, I've known in my heart that I want to be a teacher. It may have taken a circuitous route to return to that passion, but now I cannot imagine another job. When I tutor,...

I am a storyteller by nature, and I believe teaching--regardless of the subject-- is storytelling at the core. Instead of tales of fantasy and fiction, however, these are stories about how the world works. Students like working with me because of my ability to communicate information in a way that they can understand (i.e. I tell the story they want to hear). I enjoy swimming, being outdoors, and pets.
