About Edward


Bio

Hi! I’m Dr. Ed M. from New York City and I am excited to meet you.

I am proficient in curriculum programs such as Envisions Math, Amplify Science, Into Reading, and many more.

Hi! I’m Dr. Ed M. from New York City and I am excited to meet you.

For the past 19 years I worked for New York City public schools and have taught hundreds of students, many who are new to learning English. I am proficient in curriculum programs such as Envisions Math, Amplify Science, Into Reading, and many more. I am trained in Orton-Gillingham "science of reading" methodology and "Algebra for All" math skills.

And while I have experience teaching students as young as four years old, I also specialize in teaching advanced learners AP subjects such as History, English, Math and many other subjects.

I also am proficient in test prep for many important exams, including the SAT, ACT, NYC Specialized High School Exam, Catholic School High School Exams, and many others.

I received my doctoral degree from Columbia University majoring in Curriculum and Teaching, meaning I am well-trained in developing learning materials and also delivering them in a way that reaches all students. My students always learn a lot but we have fun too.

I can’t wait to meet you!

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

I have taught students with ASD for 19 years in an elementary school in New York City. I have developed strategies for students in many types of settings, from inclusion classes in general education to more restrictive special education settings. I have also done private tutoring for students with ASD in the past and have taken several doctoral level courses on student differences, including ASD.
COOP/HSPT

I live in NYC where admission to private Catholic high schools is very sought after. I have worked as a private tutor both in person and online helping students pass the coop, tachs, HSPT, and public school SHSAT test. This semester, I have helped 7 high school students prepare for these tests.
Dyslexia

Dyslexia

Not only have I been an elementary reading teacher working with students with special needs for 19 years, but I have also been trained in the Orton Gillingham method, which I have used in my own classroom for the past 4 years. Orton Gillingham is the premier program for teaching students with dyslexia - it gets results and makes learning fun for students. I am certain that my expertise in this program can help all children, but especially those with dyslexia or other learning challenges.
