I majored in English Literature. I also hold two (2) Master's degrees: one in Education and one in Developmental Psychology with a focus in Children's Media from Columbia University Teachers College.

Therefore, I not only have a natural knack for teaching and working with children -- I also have explicit knowledge of pedagogy and the best materials that can keep them engaged.

I can...

-- design curriculum to fit your student's needs

-- create custom materials and lesson plans

-- work with your student on multiple content areas (such as English language, literature, and math)

-- provide your student with helpful study and research skills, and

-- use technology to make your learning experience dynamic and interesting

I am a qualified teacher with over 12 years of experience. I have worked in settings all over the globe, with student populations of all ages and backgrounds.

I am experienced in working with various content areas, from English to math and science and social studies. I use a variety of methodologies to accomodate different learning needs. I can immediately identify areas of growth and find the best suitable learning resources and strategies for you.

I believe in teaching with variety. This means exposing your student to different texts, perspectives, and assignments as a way to broaden their horizons as a learner.

In literature, this means project-based learning, a different text for every unit, and a bevy of developmentally-appropriate instructional materials that will excite your student and create memories for years to come.

In math, our content includes a multitude of real-world examples, word problems, visual aids, difficulty levels, videos and games that can ensure mathematical concepts really stick!
