Private tutor in Elmont, NY
Education
SUNY at Binghamton - BA, Literature and Rhetoric
Experience
On both a personal level and professional level, I believe in acquiring and incorporating diverse experiences into my life and into my teaching. As a person and a mother, I enjoy reading, biking, tennis, and all the other extra-curricular activities that come with having two children. I have a strong interest in History, and my own degree is in Literature and Rhetoric from The State University of New York (SUNY) at Binghamton. I also taught high school and middle school for 12 years in the New York City school system. My goal (and a major source of my professional satisfaction) is to help as many students as possible identify and achieve their goals. I take pride in what I do and have particular passion for not just teaching the immediate subject at hand, but also teaching how to incorporate critical thinking into the students' long range behaviors and education. I recognize the need to meet each student at his or her particular level. This includes recognizing the student's strengths and weaknesses and tailoring my style to meet that student's needs and learning paradigm. I tutor both Math and Social Sciences up to middle school, and I excel at Literature, Reading, Writing, and French. Regardless of the subject or student, my ultimate goal is always to take the person I am helping and propel them up to, and even beyond, their original limits.
