About Me

I am a Tufts University graduate with a degree in Child Development and extensive experience tutoring, teaching, and working with children of all ages and with varying special needs. I have helped students in many subjects including science, math, english/writing, history, alternative communication, social skills, dance, and drama. I studied french for 9 years, lived in Paris, France for 4 months, and can speak beginning level spanish. My passion is working with children, especially those with special needs, and I plan to go to graduate school to become a School Psychologist and help to make the education system work for the individual student.
