Experience

I have taught science, English, and math to almost all age levels. Currently I teach ESL to 2nd and 4th grade as well as ESL to adults.. In the past, I have been a hands-on science teacher at the Museum of Science and have taught math to elementary aged students.

Teaching style

I believe in including as much humor as possible into my lessons so that the material learned is more easily recalled. This is especially important when teaching ESL to adults who are finishing up their long workday.

My own education history

Bachelor's Degree in Science/English at Tufts University.
