The program was aimed at helping the students improve their math, reading, and social skills. During the fall semester of my Junior year I studied abroad in Vienna, Austria.

...4 years of formal teaching experience and 10 years of experience in positions that require excellent interpersonal skills (healthcare, psychology and education). I have enjoyed the opportunity to teach diverse groups of students, including those with a variety of learning, emotional, behavioral, and neurological disabilities, those who perform at or below grade level, and English Language Learners.
