About the store

Experience

I have been teaching for over 20 years. I started out as a high school math teacher of Algebra and Geometry. I am currently working as an assistant teacher in a special education classroom at a private school. I work with students (ages 7 through 14) with multiple disabilities, including intellectual, physical, and behavioral challenges.

Teaching style

I believe all students can learn when we teach to their style of learning, whether it be visual, auditory, or kinesthetic. I like to "think outside the box", be creative, and make learning both functional and fun for my students.

My own education history

B.A. Mathematics w/ minor in Secondary Education -Stonehill College & M.A. Mathematics Education -Southern Connecticut State University

Additional biographical information

In my free time I enjoy puzzles, music, singing, crafts, and spending quality time with family, friends, and my furbabies :)
