我来自纽约北部的一个小镇。我就读于Port Jervis高中，在那里我获得了被提名为致告别辞的毕业生代表的荣誉，并发现了我是多么重视教育。当我在布朗克斯玫瑰山的福特汉姆大学上学时，我搬到了纽约市上大学。我修了英语和法语语言文学的双学位，还修了比较文学和心理学的双学位。我有幸有机会跟随自己的热情，在伦敦和巴黎学习。我非常喜欢旅行，当然也很想念我激动人心的欧洲冒险!当我在布朗克斯的家的时候，我最有意义的志愿者经历是在亨特斯点幼儿园工作。通过我在幼儿和早期识字方面的工作，我对教学产生了热爱。我扩大了自己在教育方面的志愿者工作，帮助高中学生做家庭作业，为大学一年级学生辅导英语。从福特汉姆大学毕业后，我加入了纽约市教师奖学金计划，开始了我的特殊教育和英语教师认证之旅，7-12年级。 I currently work as a 10th and 11th grade teacher at a school in Queens, where I teach French, English, and U.S. History. Studying and teaching French, I learned about the frustration students feel when struggling to understand something that might literally or figuratively seem to be in another language. I carry this understanding, lots of patience, and a passion for language into my tutoring sessions. Outside of school, I love to read, have movie nights, see as many Broadway shows as possible, and travel all over NYC and NYS seeing my lovely family and friends.
