I graduated from SUNY Cortland with a degree in Early Childhood Education and a minor in Sociology. During my time at Cortland, I completed extensive fieldwork across several schools, where I spent many hours gaining valuable classroom experience. I worked with students in a variety of age groups, ranging from early childhood through sixth grade, helping to support both their academic and social-emotional development. My teaching experiences include traditional classroom settings, small group instruction, and one-on-one support.

My approach to teaching emphasizes creating an inclusive and welcoming environment for all students, fostering strong student-teacher relationships, and tailoring instruction to meet individual needs. I am passionate about integrating creative strategies to enhance engagement, including the use of diverse multimedia resources and hands-on activities. As I continue to grow as an educator, I am committed to furthering my knowledge and skills by pursuing a Master's degree in Educational Administration this upcoming year.

This foundation has prepared me for a career dedicated to supporting student success and contributing to school leadership in the future.

With my degree in Early Childhood Education, I am well-versed in teaching young learners and creating engaging, developmentally appropriate lessons tailored to different learning styles. My background in education provides a strong foundation in communication, patience, and building connections with students—skills essential for teaching piano, especially to beginners and children. In addition to my formal education, I have over 10 years of experience playing the piano, during which I participated in NYSSMA (New York State School Music Association) for more than five years and performed in several recitals. This extensive musical experience, combined with my teaching expertise, allows me to not only instruct students in technical piano skills but also foster their musical growth through creative, structured lessons.
