Experience
I have been a teacher for 10 years. I teach Middle School Math and Science. My focus has also been early reading-phonics and comprehension. I have worked with all ages and have taught also in the creative arts. I like providing explicit intervention instruction and practice. I make the work meaningful to each child. I began teaching in Connecticut, then Ithaca, then Dunkirk, and now I teach in the Buffalo area. I have 10 years of tutoring experience, also. I provide instruction to meet the needs of each individual student. I start with a math or ELA assessment and determine the needs and strengths. I share this info with parents and or teacher and I make lesson materials based on that. I mark the gains and communicate as time progresses. I provide multi-sensory learning for the younger kids, and I offer various teaching modalities to students who need help with concentration, attention, confidence and memory. I provide strategies to help student achieve the learning objective, and gain confidence to be successful. I would be thrilled to work with your child. I am flexible and organized and provide materials for learning. I provide optional independent work that can be completed between our sessions. I focus on positive behavior management, developing emotional language and using research-based techniques. I have helped many students feel more confident and comfortable with their classwork, and happier about their school experience overall. My mission is to help students improve test scores and feel more confident about their studying abilities. I would like to help yours!
