Experience

The most important tool for any student to be successful is a caring and patient teacher. Learning is a collaborative process that involves motivated focus from the student and knowledgeable and passionate direction from the teacher. A students learning is also heavily influenced by their peers. As a teacher, I have very little control over this influence; however, I believe in encouraging my students to utilize help from their fellow classmates in order to create a positive learning environment. While teaching English as a second language at Babylon High School, I started a Homework Club so that students could work together on their homework. My teaching experience also includes assisting my professors as a teaching assistant at Stony Brook College. I helped with courses in Italian history and language. At these Homework Club sessions, I made myself available to the groups of students that wanted to succeed on their NYS Regents Exams. I graduated from Stony Brook University with a degree in history. I plan to go to law school in the future. As a tutor, I believe in allowing students easy access to all of the tools that they feel are necessary to success. Ultimately, learning is up to the student. It is my job to guide them in the proper direction.
