Introduction: As a certified teacher, I have taught all subjects but am also endorsed in middle school teaching.
Over the past 10 years, I have taught Title 1 Math to kindergarten through 8th grades; 6th-grade math, science and social studies; 8th-grade science; 7th-grade social studies and have tutored math at the Mathnasium for grades PK through high school.
I love to use alternative ways to learning and utilize manipulatives to aid in my teaching. I also teach using real-world applications and the student's personal interests/passions in order to make learning more relevant and interesting.
I have a BA degree in human biology and psychology from Stanford University, a Masters in Teaching from National-Louis University, and an MBA and MA in Public Policy from the University of Chicago. I also have experience and enjoy working with students with special needs.
