About Karen


Bio

I love to teach, and I know how much it can help children's self confidence when they see their knowledge advancing, their skills improving, and their grades going up.

Up until now, I've always taught on a volunteer basis. Quite some time ago I taught reading to adults through the Durham Literacy Program using a multi-sensory methodology. I also taught public school kids through the Augustine Project using the same approach.

I love to teach, and I know how much it can help children's self confidence when they see their knowledge advancing, their skills improving, and their grades going up.

Up until now, I've always taught on a volunteer basis. Quite some time ago I taught reading to adults through the Durham Literacy Program using a multi-sensory methodology. I also taught public school kids through the Augustine Project using the same approach.

I recently became certified to teach English as a second language through the TESOL Institute (TESOL stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages).

My minor at Williams College was Spanish literature, and I very much enjoy teaching Spanish.

With a Masters from Yale and a passion for politics, I feel qualified to teach middle school civics. I also feel qualified to teach any elementary school subjects.

I set my rate low because I don't have references as of yet.

I look forward to working with you.

I go by Mitch rather than Karen for obvious reasons. LOL
