A Little Bit About Me...

I attended Towson University where I earned a bachelor degree in Special Education and Elementary Education. To further my education, I am enrolled in graduate courses at St. Joseph's College where I will earn my Master's in the field of Literacy and Cognition. I student taught in a fifth grade classroom as well as a fourth grade inclusion class. For the past year I have been tutoring an eight year old girl with special needs.

I believe that all students can learn. Caring for young children can be a large undertaking for a teacher, but all the effort put forth in caring has great value.

More About This Tutor...

I knew I wanted to teach five minutes into my first teaching job. In 2010, I graduated SUNY Old Westbury College earning certification in Special Education (1-6) and Childhood Education (1-6). As one of the older matriculating students in the class and a mother of two girls, I have seen how different methods of teaching worked with different children. Being a wife and mother, for sure, are meaningful life experiences; but as a dance teacher working with children, I am familiar with the discipline it takes to achieve specifically defined goals. For the past 20 years I have taught ballet. I student taught in a high needs school district and am familiar with state standards.
I say with confidence that my life experiences,enthusiasm, energy,passion for teaching and honed instincts as a teacher make me more confident, driven, enthusiastic and employable than the average new graduate. I ... read more
