Experience
Experience: -2009-2010: Work Study through UCSB tutoring in an afterschool program for at-risk youth -2012-Present: Coordinator of a literacy tutoring program in a public elementary school in NYC (2012-2013) and Sacrameento (2013-Present), working extensively with students K-5th as well as training and managing other tutors -2012-2013: Private tutor for 5 students 1st-3rd grade, including two English Language Learners and students with multiple learning disabilities 2012-present: Completing my Masters in Elementary Education, including Human Development, Special Education, and fieldwork experience. Working one-on-one with students is the most effective way of increasing test scores, narrowing student achievement gap, and preparing students for success in future grades. Through individualized lesson plans, extensive preparation, and research-based methods, I serve each student with the tutoring they deserve. I make material relevant and memorable by using the individual learning style and interests of the student, providing each student with a personalized lesson they cannot get in the classroom. Because I believe strongly in individualized instruction, I do provide an initial consultation and assessment session free of charge to determine whether or not I am the right fit for your child.
