...at a Preschool for students with Autism, and currently teach at the Kindergarten, First and Second grade levels. Furthermore, I spent time mentoring and tutoring students at risk of dropping out of school. As a teacher, I found it to be a natural instinct to want to tutor.

...a country I had come to love. When I returned to New York, I was accepted into the NYC Teaching Fellows program, and began teaching in a high school in the Bronx as I earned my Masters in Secondary Special Education in the evenings. At this high school, I taught Algebra and French! I really enjoyed teaching both subjects, especially because students seem to be particularly nervous about math and foreign language. I was always...

...trajectory can be significantly impacted by my help! I also enjoy tutoring the ACT because I like seeing how elated students are when their hard work begins to pay off, and their test scores rise. I believe that individualization of instruction is crucial to academic success because students are able to get targeted feedback on their own strengths and weaknesses, not the entire class's strengths and weaknesses. I also seek to be personally approachable to...

...students for the past 6 years in both formal and informal settings. I have tutored primarily in social sciences (psychology and sociology), English (writing, editing, and literature), and biology.
