Patricia
I am a recent graduate from New York University's Master's of Arts in Teaching in Social Studies grades 7-12. During my program, I learned about many progressive pedagogical strategies and honed my skills in teaching writing, literacy, and historical content. Furthermore, I interned as a student teacher in an 8th grade social studies classroom and 11th grade US History and AP US History classrooms. Prior to this, I was a Classroom Support Staff and Extended Day supervisor at the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools lower school and volunteered as a Middle School Tutor with Tutoring Chicago. I have always had a passion for working with kids and, while I love classroom teaching, I have found my true passion in one-on-one tutoring because of the opportunity to get to know students better and support their academics through personalized lessons connected to their interests and areas of growth. I look forward to finding what gets your student excited about learning and setting them up to succeed!
