I am an experienced teacher with an M.Ed. in History from Westfield State University and hold teaching licenses in history, mathematics and special education. I have experience teaching and tutoring history, math, English and science, as well as working on reading and writing skills. I have taught and tutored history and English throughout all middle and high school years and topics. My math coursework includes calculus, but I am only willing to tutor through pre-calculus. I am able to tutor science up through biology, including all middle school science topics, but I will not tutor chemistry or physics.

I am also experienced teaching voice and theater to students ages 6-adult. I can also teach theater design up to a college level, having taught and supervised undergraduate acting students at both a large university and small college.
