Fun Facts

The opportunity to work as a tutor allows me to do what I enjoy doing most: motivating and inspiring children to want to learn. I am passionate about helping students improve in all subject areas. I am flexible to tutor any subject area for whatever you see deemed fit for me. One passion I embrace as a Montessori certified teacher each day is helping teachers and students by following the Montessori philosophy of teaching. Some of my interests: cooking, writing childrens books, and hiking.

About Me

I have learned through completing my Masters degree at UCONN in Educational Psychology, to teach a wide array of learning styles, obtain a deep understanding of child development, and how to best utilize teaching pedagogies. In my academic studies and 18 years of teaching experience, I have learned how to best differentiate instruction for children and adults to actively learn in meaningful ways.

Experience

My interest in tutoring is derived from wanting to be a part of making a positive difference in helping children. In my 12 years of tutoring elementary through high school students I have experienced multiple learning styles, different curriculums, and special needs plans. It is these diverse tutoring experiences that allow me to best adapt to each child.

Approach

It is very important to me to see children reach their highest educational goals, foster positive social and emotional development skills. In my 12 years of tutoring elementary through high school students I have experienced multiple learning styles, different curriculums, and special need plans. It is with these diverse tutoring experiences that allow me to best adapt. Each session I follow your child's interests, preferred learning style, and talents to overcome areas of challenge.
