I graduated from Teachers College Columbia University with an Ed.M. in Philosophy and Education (Emphasis on Teaching Physics) and obtained my B.S. degree double majoring in Physics and Philosophy from Carnegie Mellon University. I proudly offer online tutoring sessions for elementary through high school students throughout the US and beyond. I am a certified Massachusetts teacher with over 15 years of classroom teaching and tutoring experience. I believe in focusing on the individual learning needs of each and every one of my students. Everyone learns differently and at a different pace, so I am prepared to create a plan that best suits my students. I also wish to use my expertise to actively create a positive learning environment and cultivate a love of learning in each of my pupils.

I have taught every age range of students from elementary to college; I have ample experience teaching Physics, Chemistry, General Science, Math, US History, World History, ESL, Philosophy, and TOEFL. I am also more than familiar with and have ample experience teaching IB/AP/Regents/Montessori curricula spanning multiple age ranges and subjects.

I would appreciate an opportunity to discuss with you how I can help you meet your educational goals. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you!
