Private tutor in Brookhaven, NY

Education

B.A. English, Stony Brook, NY (GPA 3.67) My undergraduate work consisted of English and Spanish language and literature analysis. I also studied abroad in Spain for a year where I was better able to understand and analyze Spanish language, culture and literature. M.A.T. ESOL, Hunter College, NY (GPA 3.9) My teaching degree in teaching English as a Second Language has been an extensive study into the complexities of the English language, including grammar, linguistics, comparisons to other languages and the meaning behind all of these. I love analyzing and teaching languages as I feel they empower us with communication and connections.

Hobbies

I enjoy reading everything, playing sports such as volleyball, soccer and running, and being outdoors. Mostly, I enjoy learning new things. I have experience teaching students from ages 7- 57 and I have learned so much from each of them. My passion for learning is one of my greatest strengths as a teacher as I have been told it "radiates through the students I teach."
