*Available to accept clients currently and am now booking for Summer Tutoring.*
About me: Nurturing a love of learning is my life's work and my passion. I am a certified, masters level, tenured teacher with 15 years of experience. I pride myself on holding three certifications alongside an empathetic approach, a lot of creativity, and heart. I am an NYU and Providence College Graduate and am Orton Gillingham, Wilson, and Visualizing and Verbalizing Certified. I have worked with a range of ages from young children to adults so we can start wherever you are and grow your skills from there! I use individualized, specialized, multisensory instruction and adapt to whatever you need. I help older students to expand their vocabulary, comprehend texts, or respond to reading with their own unique writing voice.
I individualize our time to unique learning profiles, interests, and goals. The flow and cadence of my sessions varies based on your goal! We can start brief activation of prior knowledge, add an interactive lesson, and follow up with guided and independent practice. Sessions end with reflection on what students have done well with and how we can continue to grow skills.

About me: Nurturing a love of learning is my life's work. I am a certified, masters level, tenured teacher with 15 years of experience. I pride myself on holding three certifications alongside an empathetic approach, a lot of creativity, and heart. I am an NYU and Providence College Graduate and am Orton Gillingham, Wilson, and Visualizing and Verbalizing Certified. I am also on the Math Leadership Team in my school district, designing innovative math curriculum, piloting programs, and being at the heart of advising others on what approaches and techniques work best for our students. I have worked with a range of ages including elementary school, middle, and high school students and understand how to relate and build a teaching rapport with every age and stage. I have also worked with many adults looking to expand their skills or pursue a new hobby.
I individualize our time to unique learning profiles, interests, and goals. The flow and cadence of my sessions include a brief activation of prior knowledge, an interactive mini-lesson, followed by guided and independent practice. Sessions end with a brief activation of prior knowledge, an interactive mini-lesson, followed by guided and independent practice. Sessions end with a brief review and reflection. I have many resources that are evidence based, standards aligned, engaging, and infuse fun into learning.
