I am a retired teacher and guidance counselor, and I was blessed with the opportunity to teach in the New York school system for over thirty five years. I taught both science and English Language Arts to 7th and 8th graders, and my students always performed very well on the state exams. Coming from my background, I was able to offer my students learning styles and methods from two distinctly different education styles. I came from a discipline that was centered on extended responses in ever... Read more

I've always loved helping people learn and improve, ever since middle school. Back then I would help my classmates study for exams, but eventually I moved on to a few different teaching jobs. I feel that my strength is breaking problems down into their most basic pieces which helps students quickly learn new things by making them more manageable. What are my qualifications? I graduated from RPI in 2019 with a dual degree B.S. in computer science and computational mathematics with a 3.77 GP... Read more

My native language was Spanish. I was born in Bogota, Colombia but I've been in the U.S. since I was 16 years old. Learning the correct English pronunciation, I also developed games to enhance the learning of Spanish and English as a second language. I found that this was indeed a very useful tool to speed up learning and make students happier when they studied the language. For a few years before my retirement, I was elevated to serve as a counselor to adults whose primary language was Spa... Read more

I never thought I would become a teacher, professor and tutor. I just assumed I would go to medical and become a doctor. I am a couple months away from becoming M.D., but the the whole time my passion has been geared towards teaching. Before medical school I was a college professor for 3 years across New York, teaching future nurses, healthcare professionals and physicians. My students eventually told me to produce YouTube videos, for which I have about 7,000 subscribers and almost a milli... Read more

I believe it’s important to acknowledge the many achievements gaps in education. Darling Hammond in her book the Flat world and Education, states that “At a time when children of color comprise a majority in most urban districts and will be a majority in the nation as a whole by 2025, we face pernicious achievement gaps that fuel inequality short changing our young people and nation. “ There’s this perceived notion that schools provide equal opportunities for all. However, we need to realize ... Read more
