Potential students,
I have been teaching in New Jersey for the past 8 years, and I've covered a broad set of topics and grade levels from Kindergarten though 12th grade. I've tutored students from pre-school age through college for the past 10 years or so now. I cater to the learning style of the students I'm working with and try to create fun and exciting ways to learn and practice what is covered in my lessons.

Potential students,
I have been teaching in New Jersey for the past 8 years, and I've covered a broad set of topics and grade levels from Kindergarten though 12th grade. I've tutored students from pre-school age through college for the past 10 years or so now. I cater to the learning style of the students I'm working with and try to create fun and exciting ways to learn and practice what is covered in my lessons. Every student is different and I do my best to find what works for them to not just survive but thrive through their education.
I hold two associates degrees from Bergen Community college, one in Business Administration and the second in World languages with a focus on American Sign Language and German. I hold a B.A. in History from Rutgers University - Newark and will be starting Graduate School in the spring with a focus on a Masters of Teaching/Education. I'm licensed to be a substitute teacher in the state of New Jersey. Additionally I am certified to teach English as a foreign/second language. My undergraduate education contained a variety of topics from STEM to Literature and more. I currently teach at two Jewish religion schools, lessons include Hebrew reading skills, bar and bat mitzvah tutoring, and Jewish identity, religion and culture.
Finally I want to say this publicly because I feel it's an important part of my educational philosophy. I do not expect my students to know everything, because I don't know everything and could never achieve such a task. I welcome questions and will admit when I don't know something but will always strive to do the research (and at times teach students how to do more independent research) to find the answers to any and all questions I'm asked. Learning is a life long adventure that should never end.
