...grader, Geometry (with the hopes of skipping 8th grade math) for a rising 8th grader, and homework help for a variety of students. I very much enjoy working with students of all ages and trying to find new ways to explain concepts that make sense. My brain often works well with memory tricks and easy-to-remember steps to using a concept, so I am accustomed to finding ways to break down lessons in ways that make...

I would love to teach elementary school and middle school students in my areas of interest. They are: Nutrition, cooking skills, math, the biological sciences, reading, and writing. I currently produce a podcast called "healing outside the box", which deals with issues of food safety and sustainability, as well as nutrition. I enjoy discussing these topics. I also encourage students to ask about basic anatomy and nutrition-related chronic illnesses.

...boyfriend's notes and then send them back to him. And no, that did not last long. So I was always destined to be a teacher. My teaching mission as I see it, is to help students enjoy the escape and the joy that literature can bring to their lives. I also want students to discover the power of writing and expressing themselves. Learning should be an adventure,and I strive to incorporate energy and humor into...

...less efficiently. I like to get to know my students' interests and what they've enjoyed so far in school and use that as a base to get them excited for what's to come. I make sure to keep my lessons and learning styles adaptive to accommodate the student wherever and whenever needed. While the content in which we learn will remain the same to ensure the student remains on track, I understand there may be...

...classes. One of my favorite parts of teaching is getting to know each student as a learner. No two students are the same, and it is an exciting challenge to find what strategies work best for each student. IEPs and 504 plans act as a guide for each student, but I like to go deeper than that and find how I as a teacher can best connect the student to the material being studied.

...teacher at Breed Middle School in Lynn. In May 2019, I received my license in English and Secondary Education with a Sheltered English Immersion endorsement (grades 5-12) and my Bachelor's Degree in English from Westfield State University. Tutoring is one of my favorite forms of teaching. There is no better moment than when a student is able to figure something out in their own way (aka the lightbulb moment). I tutor a variety of subjects!...

...A thorough understanding of a topic can only be attained this way, and thus I believe my two goals compliment one another perfectly in this regard. Albert Einstein once said one doesn't fully understand a topic until one can explain it to a six year old; I'd like to help your kids attain this level of understanding. It's only once a topic becomes something that can be discussed critically by a student in context that...

...a collaborative approach to teaching, and both in the classroom and one-on-one, I believe that the best way for a student to learn material is to move beyond recall and work toward synthesis and analysis for complete understanding. When I’m not teaching or tutoring, I love to read history books (especially those about Robert Kennedy), run (long distances – in all types of weather), and travel. The most incredible place I have been is Tanzania...

I am passionate about teaching and ensuring that my students can get something valuable out of my sessions.

...like they needed help writing papers, personal statements, or simple responses for classes, but in my senior year I got the chance to substitute for one of my previous professors. This sparked my interest in tutoring, and the year after I graduated I tutored student athletes at the university in English, History and Mythology classes. I believe that all students are highly capable, they just need the proper tools to gain the confidence to succeed....

...everyday lives. To quote Jane Chu, “Although many may not realize it, the arts actively intersect with areas such as the economy, human development, and community vitality. The arts and artists are an integral part of the solution to the challenges we face in all parts of our society.” I am also interested in international arts policy, having visited over 25 countries while living and working abroad for more than four years.

...open to discussing what works and what does not for a particular student. If the lesson is not exactly making an impact, then I will find a new approach for my students to try and understand the material. Reading fantasy and sci-fi is a huge passion of mine.
