Meet Celestina

Hello! I just graduated from Harvard Graduate School of Education with a literacy specialist degree and am hoping to hang out with some sweet kids this summer before I return to my teaching position. I've taught 1st grade literacy for the last 7 years and have received the district's highest evaluation ranking all years of my teaching. In addition to teaching, I develop weekly individualize instruction for students at a Dyslexia clinic and now also serve as a mentor for other teachers there. I am skilled at using various reading assessment tools to develop learning sequences for a reader's unique needs. Although I teach 1st grade, I have worked with students of various ages. In addition to teaching internships with nationally recognized organizations (Breakthrough, Uncommon Schools), I also have many years of babysitting and tutoring experience. Most recently, I nannied for an adorable 8-month-old on Capitol Hill the summer before Read more I moved to Boston. I also have experience taking care of pick up and drop off, providing homework help, cooking meals and supervising play dates. I enjoy teaching reading, imaginative play, arts & crafts, board games, etc! I would love to spend some time with some cuties and nice families some nights and weekends! Look forward to hearing from you if you feel I'm a good match!
