About Me

After receiving my undergraduate degree I moved to Bangkok, Thailand to teach English at a private bilingual school. I worked as an ESL instructor, Kindergarten teacher, private tutoring instructor, and Kindergarten department head during my four years in Thailand. Outside of my normal duties of being a homeroom teacher or administrator at the private school I worked at, I also tutored English and basic Math to young students in their homes around Bangkok. I love tutoring because not only is it rewarding to help someone academically, it helps me as a teacher understand a range of student needs that may be overlooked in the big classroom. I enjoy working with students of all ages and have experience working with elementary students assisting in phonics, reading, writing, and arithmetic development as well as English language development for second language learners in college or for business purposes. I am currently attending Wagner College as a Graduate student in Childhood & Special Education and am a graduate assistant for the Early Childhood Center of Wagner College. In my free time, I love exploring New York city, writing and reading poetry/spoken word at open mic nights, and am currently working on my own independent children's music album.
