I'm a school social worker, working in Newark. I'm open to meeting you and your student in your home, or a local library. I've been working with kids for a number of years and nothing comes close to the satisfaction of helping a student have that "Aha!" moment, whether it's academics, social or emotional.

I received my Master's in Social Work in 2008 and have always been interested in Mental Health and utilizing various methods to help achieve balance. I love playing chess, doing yoga, and art/music therapy as ways to help quiet the mind and focus attention. I love building relationships with children and families to help foster growth.

I'm extremely patient and very resourceful.
Contact me with questions, comments, recommended reading or any other requests!

I have joined WyzAnt to tutor Chess, K-6, and other alternatives.

Studied psychology and social work in college and still very involved in continuing education courses in these fields which are very much blended together. Ask me about subject-specifics (Human Behavior/Development, etc) or more general study skills for these topics.

Chess

I have taught chess in schools for 2 years and am primarily focused on teaching beginners. Aspects include pieces/movements (material), openings (center control & mobility), check & checkmate, and other various strategies & techniques. This winter marks the start of my school's first Chess Club, for which I am the adviser.
