Private tutor in Boston, MA

Education

I hold a Master of Arts in Teaching and a BA in History from Simmons College. I am licensed to teach History and English Language Arts to fifth through twelfth graders, and am currently taking the Sheltered English Immersion class. Last summer, I taught Math and English Language Arts to fifth graders through the Summer Learning Project on Thompson Island. There, I worked with Outward Bound instructors both in the classroom and in an outdoor, social/emotional learning environment.

Experience

I am currently teaching World History and Biology at Phoenix Charter Academy in Chelsea. I have also taught Writer's Workshop and Psychology. Before teaching, I worked as a Behavioral Health Professional in the Bangor, Maine area. During this time, I served children with developmental and emotional challenges, such as autism and ADHD, and their families. Together, we strategiezed ways for students to thrive both academically and emotionally.

Hobbies

I love to be outdoors, and look forward to a lot of hiking this summer up in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. I value leading an active lifestyle, and am currently training to run a half marathon with my husband in the fall. In my free time, I love to play kickball and foursquare with my friends. I also love to cook and grill, so I am excited that it is BBQ season!
