I graduated from SUNY Albany in 2012 with a Bachelor of Arts Cum Laude with a concentration in History, specifically World History, and a minor in Sociology. I am a hard-working, self motivated educator who is constantly looking to gain experience and sharpen my skills. I have experience teaching 7th grade U.S. History and 12th grade Economics during my time as a student teacher and have experience with my own classroom as a leave replacement in a 9th grade Global History I class. In addition I have worked as a substitute in a variety of classes with students ranging from grades 6-12.Learning does not have to be boring. In fact, I believe it should be something both the student and teacher enjoy. If the teacher is enjoying the subject, the activities and lessons will be presented with more passion and energy. That is something I try to bring to each and every student. If the student is interested and engaged in the material, he or she will have a much easier time remembering the content and become self-motivated to want to learn more. I also strongly believe that each student has his or her own way of learning. Once I get to know a student and figure out what he or she likes or dislikes, I can cater my teaching to fit his or her preferences and enhance the learning experience. I am readily available and comfortable tutoring students from grades 6-12 in History and also Middle School Mathematics. Outside of teaching, I am interested in sports and fitness, cooking, traveling, and science. I am generally curious and love to learn as well as teach.
