I recently graduated from Hofstra University with a double major in Early Childhood/Childhood Education and another degree in Drama. My teaching experience covers a wide variety of ages, topics, and settings. In addition to teaching in an in person and virtual general education setting grades PreK-6, I have also taught social-emotional and character development courses for theater students ages 5 through college. I recently was a head teacher of a summer school program for 4th grade English Language Learners to review ELA and Math content from the previous year. I have done 1-1 virtual and in person reading and writing tutoring throughout the last year combining hand-written work and online resources. While I love working with students of all ages, my passion lies with students at the elementary level. My philosophy of education centers around the idea that learning should be exciting, engaging, and inspiring students to become compassionate and curious citizens of the world. I strive to connect topics with student interest to make lessons more relevant and fun. In my free time I enjoy going on walks while listening to a podcast, playing virtual board games with my friends, and cooking up something fun for dinner while belting out my favorite musical soundtrack.
