Elementary (K-6th)

I graduated from Kean University with a B.A. in Elementary Education and Spanish in 2005. I now run a program and teach students at the elementary level.

Phonics

I have been teaching phonics to students of all ages (to beginning readers as well as to learners of English as a second language) for seven years. I prefer to use a phonics program called Phonics for Reading because it is research-based and proven to be effective.

Study Skills

I have been teaching students how to develop healthy study habits for over seven years.

I am able to teach students the following study skills:

* Finding the Right Study Space
* Time/Project Management
* Mind Mapping
* Note Taking
* Test Taking Strategies
* Using Acronyms
* Using Mnemonic Devices
* Chunking Information
* Studying with Multiple Sources
* Studying with Flash Cards
* Index (A Study System)
* A.S.P.I.R.E...

Track & Field

In college (2000-2004), I trained and competed with Kean University's Cross Country and Track & Field teams. After my first year of participation, I was named Most Valuable Player (2000). I still train and compete in road races each year.

ESL/ESOL

I have earned a master’s degree in English Language Learning as well as a superior rating on both the Oral Proficiency Interview and Writing Proficiency Test in English, satisfying the requirement to be defined as a highly qualified teacher of English as a Second Language (ESL).

Yoga

I have been practicing yoga for seven years.

Ballet

I have been practicing ballet since I was 3 years old. At 9 years old, I joined a competitive dance team and won many awards for my performances. As I grew older, I got more and more involved in ballet. I completed Princeton Ballet School's Professional Training Program and began practicing and performing with the junior company. In time, I began performing with the American Repertory Ballet Company as well as the New Jersey Ballet Company in works such as The Nutcracker and Sleeping Beauty. Although... Read More

Dyslexia

I have been trained to use the Orton-Gillingham method, a multi-sensory approach that was specifically designed to remediate dyslexia. I implement the Orton-Gillingham method when I am teaching remedial reading to exceptional learners. I also use this approach when I am teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) to newcomers.

Praxis

I am able to prepare students for the following Praxis teaching exams:

0014 - Elementary Education: Content Knowledge

0360 - English to Speakers of Other Languages

I earned a score of 151/200 on the Elementary Education: Content Knowledge Praxis exam (0014).

I earned a score of 600/990 (average performance range is between 570-720/990) on the English to Speakers of Other Languages Praxis exam (0360).

I am currently using a study guide to... Read More
