I have worked with children in daycares, public, private, and international schools for 10+ years. I also interned 6 additional years during high school and college. I was an MCAS tutor for third grade for 1 year, a special education one on one assistance for 2 years in Newton, MA, and a preschool teacher for 1 year in Watertown, MA. I also taught English as a second language for one year abroad in Thailand. I currently work as an English teacher at an International school in San Diego. I have 10 years experience working with children 6 weeks old through 12 years old and 1 year experience working with high school students and adults. I am looking for an opportunity to help your child become a stronger learner in English, math, writing and all aspects of reading; fluency, comprehension, & phonemic awareness. With my help your child will persevere and grow to love to learn.
