I am here offering my unique mix of strengths and career skills. I hold both a permanent certification in teaching secondary Spanish as well as a bachelors of nursing, my most current profession, with which I have worked as an inpatient psychiatric nurse in mental health. So, for all you that suffer through test anxiety, misery at school with bullies, and general blahs of not knowing what you should be doing next, maybe I can share with you some of my own lessons I have learned along my own...

So, for all you that suffer through test anxiety, misery at school with bullies, and general blahs of not knowing what you should be doing next, maybe I can share with you some of my own lessons I have learned along my own path.
I have a bachelors of nursing from Binghamton University, having completed the incredibly demanding BAT (Baccalaureate Accelerated Track) program in 2011 as a full scholarship recipient. I have crammed and prepped pre-requisites to the nursing program, all nursing coursework and of course the apex of the degree, passing the NCLEX on my first try.
My field of specialty in nursing is that of Psychiatric nursing, working as an inpatient nurse in acute hospital settings. I perform assessments, admissions, therapeutic rapport and goal settings, as well as many other psychology-based job skills. Psych is my passion and I never considered another field for my nursing career, so I would love to share that passion with you.
I have ten years experience teaching Spanish and am permanently certified to do so. I have taught all levels from beginner through Spanish IV.
I passed my NCLEX on my first attempt, and I would gladly help you go through guides, sample test questions and provide you with as much encouragement and repetition practice you think you may need to also be successful on your first attempt!
I have worked with people with a wide variety of special needs. As a Spanish Teacher, I had students with IEPs and had to evaluate progress and work within the students' modifications. I worked in volunteering in Special Olympics when I was much younger, and my brother and his wife have been in Special Education their entire careers.
As a Psych Nurse, I have had multiple patients with Autism and Aspergers, as well
