I have extensive experience teaching in various capacities and now also tutoring. My previous teaching experience falls into three categories; teaching children, teens, and adults.

While I began working with children when I assisted in Jewish Day Schools and Congregational schools at the beginning of college, I now am spending more time tutoring elementary reading and math. At the beginning of college, I worked as a teachers aide at the Hebrew Day School of Montgomery County and at Ohr Kodesh Congregation. I also taught Hebrew School for several hours a week later on as a lead teacher at the Bethesda Chevy Chase Jewish Community Group later on. At these different schools, I worked with children whose ages ranged from kindergarten to sixth grade. Informed by the formal education courses I took in college, I learned to design Hebrew school curriculums, create lesson plans, and even to assist some children with special learning needs. I made use of multimedia techniques when I created the lesson plans and made sure that the kids gained exposure to the curriculum through art, music, and technology in addition to more traditional testing, quizzing, and memorizing exercises.

When I worked with teens, I taught an elective course in Jewish story-telling and led a literary magazine workshop for teen-aged girls at a homeschooling program called Ashreinu Educational Programs for Girls. I worked on creating a milieu where the students felt comfortable expressing themselves creatively while acting in a respectful way.

My work with adults involves tutoring college students in subjects that have included Hebrew, Communications, and even the fine arts. Thanks for considering me as a tutor.
