Experience
I am currently a teacher working with fourth grade Special Education students. I help my current students learn reading, math, and writing. I tutor a variety of subjects, ranging from elementary math to psychology. I also tutor elementary reading and writing, help students prepare for tests, provide general homework help, and help with virtually any need of a student. My experience teaching children with special needs has helped me learn to tailor my lessons to every individual student's needs. I like to make my lesson plans stimulating and creative, and I work hands-on activities and technology into them whenever possible. I believe every student learns best when lessons are engaging, and a fun lesson will keep a student interested and hold their focus much longer. I graduated from Columbia High School in 2004. I earned my bachelor's degree in Psychology at Rutgers College in 2008. In 2009, I earned a master's degree in Education with dual certification in both Middle School Mathematics (6-8) and Elementary Education (K-5). In 2013, I earned my Teacher of Students with Disabilities certificate at Kean University. When not teaching, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends. I also like to read, swim, and travel whenever I get the chance.
