Experience Summary
I have worked in the field of education since 1998. I started as a Crisis Counselor at a school that catered to students with emotional and behavioral disabilities. My performance was such that I was offered a teaching position while going back to school to receive my certifications. I then moved on to the Newark Public Schools system where I have been teaching since 2002. I have taught various types of classes and grade levels 5-8. I have taught self-contained Learning Disability Mild and Severe, Behavioral Disorders, Emotional Disorders, Autism, and inclusion classes. In addition I have served as Lead Teacher for after school and summer enrichment programs programs. I also have experience in one to one tutoring with middle school students. Furthermore,I provided homework assistance at my local church.
Teaching Style
I teach in a manner that engages and stimulates various regions of the brain to ensure a higher accuracy of retention and comprehension.
