I have experience helping students of all ages with homework, developing foundational skills, preparing for school exams and standardized tests, and enhancing reading & writing skills. During that time, I also ran an English as a Second Language education program for adults looking to improve their language skills. Currently, I am a middle school teacher specializing in work with English language learners, and am working towards my teacher certification with a concentration in TESOL.Stemming from my education and experience, I am deeply interested in environmental science and teaching English. Additionally, I am passionate about test preparation and developing successful writing skills for tests and college applications. Through a variety of strategies and motivational techniques, any academic challenge can be turned into a fun and meaningful learning experience! I am a firm believer in creating a comfortable learning environment that encourages a student to achieve his or her highest potential. Students of all ages deserve quality education opportunities, and I believe that tutoring is a key stepping-stone to success. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, hiking, Bikram Yoga, sightseeing around New York, and spending time with my dog. I have a very extroverted personality and love meeting new people, particularly those who share common interests!
