Kristina
Certified Tutor
As a third grade ICT teacher for the Nest Program (children with Autism), I completely understand the importance of collaboration with other teachers and students. After completing my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Boston University, I continued my academic career at Adelphi University to receive a Master's Degree in Childhood Education. Now, I will be completing my 8th year as a teacher for the Department of Education.
因为我总是喜欢尝试新事物challenging myself, I recently began rock climbing. I love the mental and physical challenges of different activities and exercising. Traveling and exploring the world is another great love of mine. I have been lucky to have many wonderful memories experiencing different cultures, people and land. Sharing my travels and thousands of photographs with my family and students is humbling and exciting for me. In addition, I look forward to taking pottery classes with my mother to continue exploring things I enjoy and taking time to center myself. As a new mother, I can understand how necessary it is to take care of yourself so that you can bring your best to those in your life.
I look forward to working with all students with all different needs!

What is your teaching philosophy?
My philosophy is to promote individual strengths and identify interests that boost confidence and academic foundation. Using these positives, we can then appropriately approach areas of need or reinforcement. Once students feel secure and safe academically, they can use these tools to constructively work on other academics that are new and challenging to encourage growth in all areas. Through the use of technology, manipulatives and any means of a hands-on approach, students can find the strategies to give them the power to achieve their goals. In addition, it is necessary to understand the different learning styles of students so they can learn to the best of their abilities. The use of multiple intelligences will also benefit each student's learning style.
