About Alyssa


Bio

Hi, I received my B.S. in Biology from William Paterson University and my M.A.T in Secondary Education from New Jersey City University. I know first hand how difficult some topics can be. Math and Science didn't come easily to me at first; I really had to work hard and study for hours. It can be frustrating when a topic doesn't click, but when it does- everything else on the topic makes sense.

Hi, I received my B.S. in Biology from William Paterson University and my M.A.T in Secondary Education from New Jersey City University. I know first hand how difficult some topics can be. Math and Science didn't come easily to me at first; I really had to work hard and study for hours. It can be frustrating when a topic doesn't click, but when it does- everything else on the topic makes sense.
I have my K-12 NJ teaching license. I currently teach High School Biology in Passaic County. I previously taught 6th and 8th grade Science. I have worked with students with special needs, English Language Learners, and students with variety of learning levels.

I am willing to tutor all subjects K-12, though I specialize in Math and Science. I scored above average in each section of the Praxis Core (Math, Reading, Writing) and feel more than confident that I can tutor students on this test.

I graduated with a B.S. in Biology with Latin Honors. I was inducted in to the Biology Honor Society for Academic achievement. Courses studied include Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, Genetics, Ecology and Evolution, Microbiology, Organic Chemistry.

I graduated with a M.A.T in Secondary Education with a 3.97 GPA. The program prepared me to incorporate technology into my classroom activities, respond to varied learning styles, and keep pace with education trends and demands.

Don't keep struggling with school topics. Get rid of that pre-test stress by getting help. Then you can focus on fun things.
