Experience
I am an alumnus of Manhattan College and the Teachers College at Columbia University. I have seventeen years of teaching experience under my belt. I have taught students in Study Skills, Economics, Writing, Government, Psychology, and Social Studies. These are the subjects I have the most experience teaching, but I can also help in American History, Statistics, Grammar and Mechanics, and English. I have experience working with students of all skill levels, including Special Education and Advanced Placement students.My tutoring style includes encouraging my students to think for themselves. I don't believe in simply telling them what they should learn. I believe in allowing my students to grow by giving them the skills that are necessary to succeed. I look forward to helping each of my students gain the skills needed to succeed in their academic careers.When I am not tutoring, you can find me reading, brushing up on politics, and indulging in photography. I also enjoy camping and playing and watching sports.
