I was inspired to pursue mathematics-related work by my eighth grade algebra teacher. An honors math student in high school and college, I decided to pursue a career where I could utilize my analytical and quantitative skills: finance. I have taught finance and math and the middle school and college levels. I have also taught music (piano and singing) to people of all ages.

I create a positive atmosphere and help students to be responsible first to themselves and then to their community. I also try to make my students aware of their potiential and guide them in processing information by first understanding the context in which it is used. Then I like to use visuals in my teaching style. I prefer to start with testing of some kind to assess the developmental level of the student. My teaching experience began with my work with troubled youth in Michigan. I worked with the Fine Arts Team using the arts to teach visually. I also used positive Peer Culture for helping students to deal with their problems. I slso taught history at the school.

As an alumni of Berklee College of Music, I have a broad understanding not only of music itself, but also how it can be utilized in today’s contemporary world. I have had extensive theory, composition, electronic and vocal classes that not only opened new doors for my music, but showed me ways to communicate what I feel and hear to others through my music. While at Berklee I performed live with bands in Boston and for special events, such as the Red Cross, as well as receiving recognition for my compositions. The 4 years I attended Berklee I assisted and worked with classmates to help them understand assignments and gain the understanding of the material in class from studies such as music history through to performance. I enjoy working with others to help them have a thorough understanding. I believe it is possible for anyone to understand and apply music the way they desire to. It d

Using techniques learned from various levels of education classes teamed with experience, I am able to connect and allow learning to happen. I find great satisfaction in helping enhance the quality of education in the lives of children. Teaching children has been part of my life for many years, on many levels.
