...When my sisters and I came home from our school in the Bronx we had to complete 'Mom's homework' after our own schoolwork as a matter of course. 'Mom's homework' was our way into the best private schools in the northeast.

I believe that children have exactly one...

...experience working in formal education including day-to-day substituting in Brookline and long-term class coverage in Boston, as well as experience in private, non-essential education (teaching with Education First in Quito, Ecuador). While I very much enjoy classroom teaching, the one-to-one or small-group teaching I did with Education First is something that I found to be most rewarding. Really being able to form close relationships with a small number of students and helping them grow was...

...New Jersey. I fell in love with the work and philosophy that people, and especially children, learn best by doing. It is an approach to teaching and tutoring that I believe in and practice, especially now that I work as a Teacher's Assistant at a childcare center, servicing children 2-4 years old.
