Education

Experience

I earned my bachelor's degree in Sociology from St. John's University, and moved on to attend Hofstra University to earn my master's degree in Physical Education. Since then, I have worked with a non-profit tutoring adult students in preparation for the GED, taught and tutored high school students in preparation for standardized exams, and currently work as a special education teacher. I have worked with students ranging from elementary schoolers to adult students, and I can tutor subjects including algebra, geometry, reading, and writing. I can also help students prepare for exams like the GED, HSPT, ISEE, and SAT. I'm able to work with students of all abilities, and I enjoy helping each of my students overcome their academic roadblocks to achieve their goals! I am a patient, easygoing tutor who holds myself and my students to the highest standards. I enjoy helping students discover their optimal learning style, and I tailor my approach to match my students' needs and preferences. I encourage my students to be active learners who remain positive in the face of challenges. Above all, I am an enthusiastic educator who loves sharing my knowledge with students! In my spare time, I enjoy reading, exercising, and spending time outdoors.
