TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am a NY TFA Corps alum who taught in the Bronx for two years (9th grade World History and 12th Grade Remedial History Regents Prep). I then taught at a Democracy Prep Charter School in Harlem as a 7th grade US history teacher.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I think it is so important to have a strong hook, then introduction to new material, then practice that material together, and finally allow the students to practice on their own. All lessons should have some type of summative or formative assessment so as the teacher you can check for understanding.
