I am a graduate from The University of Connecticut. I received my Bachelor of Science and Masters of Arts in Special Education with a focus in Math. Since graduation, I have taught seven years as a special education teacher in an elementary school, tutored students after school in reading and math, at home tutoring, and ran a program for high school credit recovery in that district. My favorite subject to tutor is reading because reading lays the foundation for all other learning. I am passionate about instilling the love of learning in others and I use that passion to help students become successful not only in what I am teaching but in life as well. I think it is critical to have confidence in what you are doing and feel pride in your accomplishments. In my spare time, I love to cook, read, scrapbook, and cheer on my Uconn Huskies basketball and football teams.
