Experience Summary
My first job was as a junior camp counselor, with NYC SYEP at the age of fifteen. Due to an outstanding performance and great relationship with the children I was asked to return the follow summer, as a senior counselor. I obtained a NYC per diem license with the dept of education, earned a BBA in Marketing at Iona College, and currently two classes shy of completing a MA degree in Sped. As a teacher I have worked with grades pre K - 8th. Besides teaching with the Dept. of Education, I am also an assistant director of a camp/ after school tutoring center. Due to my move to Florida from NYC I resigned from the after school position but still continue to run the summer section of the camp.
Teaching Style
I love being an educator. I use the tools I have learned from my many years of being in the classroom and working with children. I am patient, and understand the concept of differential teaching. As a trained Special Education teacher our main focus is catering to each student needs, learning styles, and IEP, whilst forming a positive communication between the student and guardian. Learning is best achieved when we work as a team.
