Experience
Experienced math and Special Education teacher available for your educational/tutoring needs this school year: Hi, I am a math specialist at Reading Public Schools who has spent the last 10 years supporting students in math, particularly those managing learning disabilities such as dyslexia, dyscalculia and ADHD. I have my license in middle school math and moderate Special Education, and I have a Master's in Special Education from Simmons University and a Master's of Social Work from Boston College. Students and families value my encouraging, supportive approach, which aims to build students confidence and helps them connect to their love of learning. I believe all students have strengths, and I use a metacognitive approach that helps students understand their unique learning process and find ways to use their natural strengths to overcome their challenges. I have diverse teaching experience, including teaching at Landmark School, a school that specializes in supporting students with learning disabilities, and teaching 6th, 7th, and 8th grade math in the Reading Public School system. I am also a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and have experience supporting students with anxiety and executive function challenges as an education coach. I also have 8 years of experience teaching middle and high school math, bringing to life difficult concepts through kinesthetic methods such as teaching slope through utilizing a motion detector device. A full resume with detailed experience in teaching, private and public tutoring, and curriculum development can be provided upon request.
