Hello! I am a student at George Mason University pursuing a B. A. in Psychology with a concentration in Developmental Psychology and on track for a minor in ASL. I have worked with children ages 4 months - 16 years old in a variety of settings such as a teacher aide, swim instructor, tutor, babysitter, event sitter, RBT (behavioral therapist), and more recently, teach Pre-K - 5th grade programs for up to 15 students for subjects including Spanish, Science, Dance, and STEM. I tutor subjects ranging from Elementary subjects, Algebra, Geometry, Biology, time management and studying techniques. I have experience working with children diagnosed with Autism and/or ADHD, teaching skills such as vocal communication in English and Spanish/ASL/AAC or SGD support, community support, social behaviors, potty training, and swimming. My goals include finishing my undergrad, going to graduate school for a Masters in Special Education, and making my passion of teaching children a lifelong career.
