About Margaret

Bio

I have over a decade of teaching and tutoring experience, including 7 years in Spanish dual language at a public school in Brooklyn. My approach is straightforward and effective: meet children where they are and build deep understanding, step by step. My passions are demystifying elementary math, building confident readers and writers, and supporting Spanish language learners.

Please reach out to discuss scheduling. I look forward to working with you!

Elementary (K-6th)

For three years, I have worked with elementary-aged students in schools: as an ESL teacher, as an Inclusion Specialist, and as a math teacher. I am currently working as a classroom assistant in a 2nd grade classroom as I pursue NY state certification in Elementary Education as part of my M.A. As an undergraduate, I also spent years tutoring and in an after-school program with elementary students.

Study Skills

As a student myself, now at the graduate level, I have excellent study skills. Over the years, I have worked with several elementary and high school students to develop their own study skills, including prioritizing, keeping a schedule, writing and reviewing drafts, studying for tests, and other skills as fit the particular student. I believe that for many students, teaching study skills is more effective than only tutoring in academic content, as it allows students to ultimately become more self-sufficient.

Special Needs

I have worked in a residential treatment center for children with social-emotional disabilities, as well as as an Inclusion Specialist for struggling children. In both settings, I found creative strategies to engage children with a variety of special needs in the content and to adapt instruction to meet their needs. As an undergraduate, I also completed coursework on children with disabilities.
