I have been interested in languages since childhood. I spoke Italian at home. Later I went to college in Paris where I learned French thoroughly. In my fourth year, my fellow students said that I spoke just like a Frenchman. Although my main career was in Information Technology, I kept up my interest in languages by teaching French, Italian, and ESL part-time for about 15 years at a Hartford-area international language school and by traveling to France and Italy. I taught French, Italian a... Read more

I started tutoring math and science when I was a freshman in high school. I loved to teach and help my fellow classmates understand difficult concepts. In senior year of high school, I taught my AP Physics class for two weeks with some guidance from the AP Chemistry teach after our teacher fell ill.

- Glastonbury , Connecticut ( 06033 )

I have loved being an early childhood teacher for the past 7 years, and was inspired to teach by my own wonderful experiences growing up. I may not have been the top student, but I had a lot of heart, and respect, for my teachers and the learning process. Through running my own classroom, tutoring for a couple of summers before becoming a mom and in the graduate classes I have taken, I have discovered that the most fruitful learning does not just come from a lesson; it is driven by the conn...
