Hi, I'm Allison. I graduated with a Masters in Education and a Masters in School Counseling. I am a certified school counselor and have been working as a school counselor since 2016. Prior to that I was working as a substitute teacher and as a para educator since 2007 in New York City, California and overseas in Thailand, China and the Middle East.
As both a teacher and a school counselor I believe in student-centered learning. I try to make my lessons center around students learning style and interests. I am also a big believer in positive reinforcement to help them build up on progress. I also follow a growth mindset approach and teach that mistakes are a part of learning, and try to encourage curiosity.
Thanks to my background as a school counselor, and working overseas, I have had a heart for working with a diverse population of students and those who may need extra help in learning. I especially enjoy helping students in reading and vocabulary, and I especially love helping them read books.
