My Education Philosophy

Who said every teacher likes apples? Perhaps they get others going, but I like a tropical sweetness with a dash of pucker.

A PINE·apple.

In 2006, I started my journey in education, and it's been one of realizations just like this.

What works for one person, might not work for the next.

That's what I've been doing all these years - developing ways to help education work for you. Whether supporting a 5th grader with ADHD to develop stronger writing skills, creating curriculum tailored for a diverse group of learners, or helping a doctoral degree applicant pass the GRE, my main interest is cultivating a love of learning for all.

M.S. Teaching Childhood Education Professional Certificate - Students with Disabilities (Gr. 5-9), NYC

I have had the profound pleasure of being a classroom teacher for over 10 years. From Florida to Japan to NYC, I gained experience in a variety of classroom settings with a wide range of student abilities and ages. In 2018, I moved out of the classroom towards other educational endeavors, and wow! - what a thrill it’s been!
