"I am licensed as a Special Educator Director, Assistant Principal, and Principal and hold teaching licenses in Elementary Education, Special Education for Moderate Disabilities K-12, and Mathematics grades 1- 12. I am also certified in Sheltered English Immersion and am Montessori Trained. I'm currently a Vice Principal at a grade 6 - 12 school where I support students with executive functioning and college counseling.
Prior to moving to administration, I taught secondary mathematics (grades 7 - 12) and special education classes. I also served as a K - 5 District Math Coordinator and worked as a literacy teacher. I've tutored students professionally in grades K- college level. My tutoring experience includes many subject areas: reading, writing, math, and study skills for grades K-12, including MCAS readiness. I have been offering SAT and GED prep, as well as MTEL support for aspiring teachers. I have helped several students with their college admissions essays, activities resumes, and scholarship applications.
My tutoring services include homework support, re-teaching concepts, study skills, individualized lesson plans, and suggestions for at-home strategies. When working with students, I combine discussion and practice with visuals and real-life connections. In graduate school, I completed research projects that analyzed best teaching practices and looked specifically at how students learn.
I provide in-person tutoring for local students and offer on-line tutoring via email, zoom, and Wyzant's Online Tutoring Forum for students who live outside of my travel radius. This allows me to support families who live long distance but need short-term immediate support, and who are looking for a less expensive option for tutoring. My rates for on-line tutoring are significantly lower than my in-person rates.
I look forward to working with your families!" less...
