About Me

It's nice to meet you. I teach high schoolers in NYC. My core subjects are Special Education 9th grade English, READ 180, and Wilson. In the past, I've taught U.S History. At work, I also work as a 12th-grade advisor helping students navigate the emotional and mental changes that come with life transitions in and out of high school. I work every day to help my students increase their self-awareness, take on more responsibility, and learn how to self-regulate. I tutor English, ESL, and social-emotional learning. In college, I studied English and I had the wonderful opportunity to study abroad in Spain. I went on to attain my Masters in Special Education, 7-12 from CUNY Hunter College. Reading, writing, financial literacy, and literacy are all things that I focus on. My teaching philosophy is the hands-on tactical approach. I believe that all work starts with having a growth mindset, modeling what's expected of students, and then having students get as much practice as possible. Outside of academia, I have experience with freelance writing and I can help you with that if you are interested in learning how to increase your income through writing.
