Greetings, Let me start by saying, that although I am a certified teacher, I do not currently teach in a classroom.

This allows me to be able to adapt my instruction in order to effectively teach you in a one-on-one setting, no matter your personal learning style. I graduated from SUNY New Paltz with a degree in secondary education for mathem... Read more

Experienced and Individualized Instruction

Teacher certification only formalized my natural inclination to nurture the inquiring minds of children. I have a patient and realistic approach framed on identifying and assessing each student and topic individually. Student-led and discovery learning methods are augmented by direct instruction as needed to maximize interest and ownership of information being shared. Timeliness, work ethic and neatness are inherent expectations of lessons and quality of character is imparted as mutual res... Read more
