Education

Experience
15 years classroom teaching experience, grades 7 - college; 11 years private tutoring experience with students from Brookline, Newton, Wellesley, Weston, Needham Public Schools. Private school students include Winsor, Milton, BB&N, Nobles, Boston Latin, Dana Hall, Brimmer & May. Known as The Language Coach, I help students overcome linguistic issues in second language acquisition encountered by native English speakers. I am successful at working with students with learning challenges and multiple intelligences. My SAT Prep classes and private sessions in Critical Reading and Writing provide nuts and bolts SAT grammar instruction as well as strategies for maximizing potential on these sections of the test. Many high school sophomores find that an infusion of grammar, rarely provided in the school curriculum, helps their overall schoolwork and gives them a leg up on test prep. Grammar classes are geared for sophomores and juniors and meet at my Brookline office; Wellesley class beginning in March! As a classroom teacher, I understand the importance of organization and proper study skills and am adept at helping your child conquer the after school homework conundrum. Former tutor: Chyten, StudyPoint, Sylvan.
