My name is David R., and I am have just completed a master's degree in English education from Columbia's Teachers College. I also have a BA in English from UMASS Amherst. Reading and writing are my passions, and I am dedicated to helping students of all levels improve and succeed in these areas.
I've had experience student teaching in an 8th grade classroom at Middle School 51 in Park Slope, and in a 9th grade classroom at Brooklyn Technical High School. I'm nearly certified in New York State to teach grades 6-12, and I'm currently taking interviews for a full time teaching position this coming fall.
Having completed two degrees in English, I know how important literature and writing is, and what a difference it can make. English is not only a subject that is useful in everyday tasks, it is a subject that is constantly speaking to what makes us uniquely human.
I have a flexible schedule throughout the summer, and I guarantee not only improvement, but maybe even some enjoyment as well.
