Tutoring Style and/or Experience

My philosophy to tutoring is that each student needs to see the fun in learning and be motivated to gain more knowledge. Each student’s educational needs are different and should be address in a manner that allows for optimal learning and academic success. I have worked with children ages 4 to 24 years old throughout my career in New York City and have always approached each student from a strength based perspective and helped them to believe they are capable of learning and have the skills to be successful. In addition to my full time position as Program Director of a high profile program initiated by our Mayor, I have worked in the evenings as a tutor as well as run a Project Based Learning program for middle school youth. I believe that I can help your child in their academic studies as well as organizational skills, time management, and test preparation. I am highly committed to the youth of New York City and believe in their academic success.
