Experience Summary
I taught one full year after getting my B.A.-teaching english to foreign students. Then left the profession to begin raising a family. Returned 7 years later and worked as a teacher"s aide in elementary school, then specialized for one year in a special ed classroom. Then began substituting in Spanish and French on a daily and long-term contracted basis in the Syosset, and Northport, L.I. school districts. I decided to get my masters, which would again certify me to teach on a permanent basis in those local districts. Although I was offered two jobs after completing my masters, my husband and I decided to relocate to Florida.
From 1987-1998, I tutored for the Brevard Learning Clinic in Melbourne and Rockledge.
Teaching Style
I have a more traditional style of teaching-see, say hear and write. This is how I achieved success with both my foreign language students, and my learning disabled students at the Clinic. I also volunteer in my grandson's classroom, and work along with the teacher and the Title ! teacher.
