我是一名教师，有教高中社会研究的资格证。我在史密斯学院获得了生物学学士学位，在乔治华盛顿大学获得了历史学硕士学位(没有论文的博士学位)，在西蒙斯学院获得了MAT学位。我在大学和高中都教过历史、生物、微积分和西班牙语。我很乐意为您或您的孩子提供任何需要或需要帮助的科目。我最喜欢历史课，尤其是世界史(从古代到现代)和美国史(我承认1820年到1850年的政治史不是我最喜欢的科目，但我知道!)除了英语，我还会不同程度地说四种语言(法语、德语、阿拉伯语、希伯来语)。我的研究生课程主要是中东史和冷战史(尤其是核军备竞赛);在大学里，我辅修历史，主要是黑暗时代和文艺复兴时期之间的欧洲历史。我认为高中教师(和家庭教师)的工作不仅仅是教授课程。我也为我的学生提供他们在大学和工作中成功所需要的技能，包括学习技能、笔记技能、研究技能、写作技能和批判性思维技能，特别是关于时事的技能。 I agree with Jefferson on the necessity of well-informed voters to a functioning democracy. I also believe that learning should be fun, whenever possible, while admitting that, particularly in high school, students must often "get through" subjects they do not find fun. I feel I should acknowledge that I consider that once my student, always my student. This means that I answer panicked emails from students who have forgotten how to do footnotes once they get to college, among other things. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy reading, watching rugby (I used to play), swimming, dancing (all kinds), photography, reading, manga/anime and needlecrafts. Model United Nations is my all-time favorite club. In addition, I love spending time with my nephew and nieces (preschool to early elementary age). I love to laugh and I am often unintentionally funny; fortunately, I don't mind laughing at myself on occasion.
