I teach English Communication, Soft Skills, Fine Art, and Art Therapy which sounds like an interesting mix because, well, it is. At the heart of everything I teach is one simple idea: **learning should actually be useful.** I’m CELTA and TEFL certified, with certification in Art Therapy, but my classroom has never been about collecting fancy words, memorising textbook answers, or nodding politely through another PowerPoint. I teach for the moments that happen outside the classroom the interview you need to walk into confidently, the conversation you’ve been avoiding, the presentation that makes your palms sweat, the idea you know is brilliant but struggle to put into words. My classes are practical, conversational, creative, and very human. We talk. We question things. We role-play awkward situations. We make mistakes without turning them into a tragedy. We figure out why something isn’t working, try it differently and sometimes laugh our way through the process. And then there’s art. As a Fine Art educator and Art Therapy practitioner, I work with creativity as more than just “making something pretty.” Art can help us express what we don’t quite know how to say, explore emotions, build confidence, slow down, and understand ourselves a little better. Whether I’m teaching someone to communicate more confidently in English, navigate a difficult workplace conversation, pick up a paintbrush after years of saying *“I’m not creative,”* or simply find another way to express themselves, I want them to leave with something they can genuinely use. My motto has always been " No learning for the sake of learning. We learn it. We try it. We mess it up. We try again. And eventually, it becomes yours."

I have been a high school and middle school teacher for the past 9 years working in Math, Science, History, and English classrooms. As a Special Education and Bilingual certified teacher I am particularly good at breaking down complicated topics, helping with reading/writing skills, and working with Spanish speakers. I have a background in New York State Regents Exam preparation. Email me so we can set up a schedule that works for you!

I have varying experience from across the grade, subject and skill spectrums. My background is heavily in English/Communications and Education. I have been a HS paraeducator, elementary paraeducator, K-12 substitute teacher and my teaching internship hours were in 5-12 English. However, I do NOT have a teaching license. I have a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies with emphasis in English, Communications and Literature. Then I did the first year and Summer of a Masters of Teaching Program at University of Northern Iowa, but could not afford 16 weeks of unpaid teaching hours. Currently, I am in a Postsecondary: Student Affairs Masters program due to graduate in 2028.

I am a mathematics teacher in my 30s who has helped thousands of students succeed in courses like Algebra 1, Trigonometry, AP Precalculus, and AP Calculus AB/BC. I graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in Mathematics. I earned my master's degree in Teaching and Curriculum at Harvard. High schoolers often find AP Precalculus, for example, to be challenging because it tends to be one of the first places they encounter ideas like limits or sinusoidal curves. My first priority when working with a student is to make sure they understand foundational concepts of Mathematics because these connections to new more complex material come up again and again throughout these courses. This focus on the essential concepts helps students see the big picture of Mathematics and understand the subject's value. I find Mathematics to be endlessly interesting, and one of my goals is to instill in my students a love of the subject. I provide dynamic visual representations and countless examples of various mathematical concepts, meeting students wherever they are in the process to tailor my instruction to fit their needs. Many of my students have decided to continue studying Mathematics after working with me. Whether your child is struggling in their Mathematics classes or craves extra practice, I would love to work with you. Whether you would like your child to have one or two review sessions prior to an exam or weekly tutoring sessions to ensure they master the subject, I would be happy to help. Mathematics is the only subject I tutor. This specialization means I can offer your child practice problems, notes, and insight into the exams that other tutors who work with students on a range of subjects cannot. I hope to work with you.
