Fun Facts

Fun facts: I enjoy dancing, music, and nature.
I am terrified of pigeons and I was born and raised in New York.

About Me

I am a Licensed Social Worker. I graduated from Columbia University School of Social Social Work in May of 2015. I enjoy working with families and children. I initially wanted to become a Math teacher, but after taking a course in sociology, I decided I wanted to do more than just teach math to children. A lot of issues that children face in school stem from issues at home. I wanted to focus on strengthening, empowering, and educating families as a whole.

Experience

While completing my undergraduate studies at Hunter College, I worked part-time as a math tutor at the Doliciani Math Learning Center. I ran a class of 20-30 students, where I assisted them with Pre-Algebra, a computer based course. I also worked as a Teacher Assistant at Kumon Math and Reading Learning Center for 3 years in Midtown West. Although I am a social worker, I am always assisting others with their math problems.

Approach

For students who dislike math or find it hard to understand, I enjoy making it simple, easy, and in terms they can relate to. I enjoy making little rhymes and associations that will make others remember what steps to take to solve a problem.

College Algebra Tutoring

I did not have to take any Algebra in College. I did tutor college students remedial math and pre-algebra, as well as algebra. I tutored a class of 2- to 30 students for the remedial and pre-algebra. I worked with one to six students for algebra. It was always gratifying to see them pass their course and move on to the next level.

GED Tutoring

I worked with two individuals, voluntarily, prep and study for the GED. Both individuals had been out of high school for over 5 years and had forgotten a lot of the material. I basically had to reteach a lot of the material, especially the math and help them retain everything they had learned.

Math Tutoring

I am comfortable tutoring college algebra, geometry, and sometimes trig. I do not feel comfortable tutoring Calculus, although I took AP Calculus, Calculus, 2 and 3. I never took Pre-Calculus in high school or college because I was placed directly into Calculus 1 due to my scores on the placement test.

Sociology Tutoring

Sociology was my major in undergrad with a minor in Mathematics. I am more comfortable in tutoring the basics and foundation courses of sociology. I cannot remember all of the courses that I took, but I passed all my sociology classes with a B or better.

Study Skills Tutoring

I am an awesome test taker. I am aware that students learn in different ways. Once a student knows what type of learner they are, it is easier for them to find ways of studying that is most effective for them. So my main goal is to help students identify their way of learning, to enhance their learning in the and outside of the classroom.

We build a very strong relationship in so little time and I was able to give them the confidence they needed to pass the exam.

Pre Algebra Tutoring
