"I have worked in education all of my life, always in ways that look at education differently than the standard school and classroom model. I am an experienced tutor who works with students of all ages. The majority of my time has been spent working with middle and high school students on both general skills and test preparation for state testing and the SAT and ACT. I work with with ESL (English as a Second Language) and other students with international backgrounds that have had their language skills improved, while also learning other material and studying for tests like the TOEFL exam.
I have also worked at summer camps, including one for children with developmental disabilities, such as ADD and Autism, and I've tutored children with similar behavioral problems in public district and charter schools in the Boston neighborhoods of Roxbury and Dorchester.
Along with tutoring, I developed curriculum and served as a program coordinator for an education non-profit in Boston. Our programs had direct, noticeable effect on the test scores of our students on the MCAS, the Massachusetts state testing for high school students.
As program coordinator I was responsible for the supervision and management, and helped to professionally develop groups of college students tutoring one-on-one with students in these schools. I have also worked as an intern in the front office of Codman Academy, a charter school in Dorchester.
I’ve worked through state-funded non-profits in New Jersey, such as FACT of Union County, to help students who are referred through social services, particularly those who have had circumstances and/or behavioral issues in their lives that make learning difficult.
Currently I am tutoring privately and teach regularly in the Fall and Spring for Educational Services Center, an organization that provides SAT/ACT prep classes, and other organizations that provide tutoring. I work with groups and individuals all around the area, from Scotch Plains, to Maplewood, to Edison. With all of my students there is" less...
