Experience
I am an enthusiastic and patience instructor with a passion for education and an extensive teaching and tutoring experience in a variety of subjects. A graduate from the College of New Rochelle with honors and Dean's list awards for high GPA for consecutive years. I continue to seek opportunities for self-improvement attending numerous trainings and workshops in order to better assist my students. I come from a family of teachers, professors and a school principal who knew that I was born to teach; education was a top priority in my family; the zeal for education was passed to me and in turn I do the same for my students who I always encourage to expect the best of themselves. It is very rewarding to see my students succeed in whatever they put an effort to achieve. During my tutoring experience I have had the pleasure to help my students improve their scores in writing, improve their reading and comprehension, understand historical events and analyze literature; in addition, I taught Spanish, ESL/ESOL K thru 12 and Adult Education. I wore many hats, one of them as a counselor, amid these teaching and counseling position, I have learned how to best teach and support each age group. I am able to design individualized instructions, reinforced problem solving skills, help the students set personal goals, conduct student's assessments and inform the parents of the child's progress. As an educator since 1991 it has always been my aim to teach my students in the style they learn best; as we all know there are various approaches to these; for that reason I believe is imperative to be in sync with each student. At times we find that if the student is not succeeding with an assignment it is often because the instructions are not clear; I always make certain my students understand the concrete directions I give in order for them to able to relate them in their own words and complete their task. My objective is to make of the student an independent learner with the capacity to perform and excel.
