Hi! I am currently a first-grade inclusion teacher and doctoral student at Teachers College, Columbia University with over 9 years of experience working with children in home, school, and clinical settings. I love working with kids and have dedicated my career to helping them grow and learn! As a teacher in both general education and special education settings, I enjoy playing with kids, teaching them social skills, helping them with homework, reading to them, and helping parents with any questions regarding toilet training or feeding. As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), I've worked extensively on implementing research-based practices in behavior management and language development. I currently hold NYS teaching certifications in Early childhood education (Birth-Grade 2), Childhood education (Grade 1-Grade 6) and the corresponding certifications for students with disabilities. For the state of New Jersey, my teaching certifications are as follows: (1) Elementary School Teacher in Grades K-6, and Read more (2) Teacher of Students with Disabilities.
