Experience
My purpose and passion in life is to help others learn. I received my bachelor's degree in Special and Elementary Education at Duquesne University. I went on to earn my master's degree in Elem/Middle Special Education from Loyola University. I feel that every individual I teach has her or his own unique abilities and strengths. The student also possesses the capacity to shine brightly in her or his own way. I believe that I am here to teach these individuals the skills and tools for them to reach their highest potential. I delight in watching students get excited when they grasp a concept for the very first time. I love to read. So, it seems only natural for me to carry this passion into helping individuals with reading. In addition to reading, I like helping them with math. My teaching and learning style is simple - hands on and fun. I assess each individual to tailor and create a teaching strategy to complement the individual's unique learning style and ability. I am a data driven and very reflective teacher and feel these traits are crucial to help the individual progress in a successful scholastic career.
