About Leah

I have been teaching Secondary English in Massachusetts for 17 years. I have a MEd. in Curriculum and Teaching from Fitchburg State University and a BA in Philosophy from Yale University.

I love working with students who are motivated to improve their skills in critical thinking, creativity, and organization. I help students to work smarter, not harder. I teach them time-management skills that, when implemented, make their lives so much easier and more fulfilling. I enjoy showing students how they can take control of their future while watching them become more independent and successful.

I began my career as an Educational Assistant in an an elementary school in New Haven, Connecticut, in 2001. I earned my Preliminary License in Massachusetts in the spring of 2002 and began teaching at the high school level that fall.

I have been teaching Secondary English in Massachusetts since 2002. I began tutoring students one-on-one since 2006. I have a MEd. from Fitchburg State University (2009) and a BA in Philosophy from Yale University (2000).

About the lesson

When I meet students for the first time, I think it's important to get to know them personally. Giving a student the individualized attention they deserve is nearly impossible without having a personal relationship with them. Once the student and I get to know one another, then we can determine the student's strengths and areas for improvement and develop a plan for success.

I have worked with all types of students, such as typical learners, learners on IEPs, and ELL students. I have also done volunteer work with preschool students.

I would encourage students to look for a tutor who had a high level of expertise in the specific area in which they need help. Their tutor should be well-educated, have a significant amouth of teaching and tutoring experience, and have strong references from past clients.

My Sophomores are currently working on a project centered around Henry David Thoreau's Resistance to Civil Government. They are determining a social issue that needs to be changed and are actually going through the process of committing their own acts of civil disobedience. I'm proud to see them take the initiative to create positive change in society, especially around issues that impact them directly like school safety, dress codes, and later start times for high school students.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
It's important that the student knows exactly what it is they need help with; a student who does not have a clear understanding of how the teacher can help may not fully reap the benefits of one-on-one tutoring. Students should be able to clearly articulate their needs as opposed to providing generalities. For example, "I tend to summarize what I read, as opposed to analyze evidence to support my claim statement" is more helpful to the teacher than "I don't know how to write". This will absolutely help the teacher understand how to best work with the student.

Leah immediately understands how students learn, and as a particularly aural learner, I appreciated her willingness to work with me in a manner that suited my learning style best. She is an incredibly empathetic educator, with a firmness that kept me accountable and an innate curiosity that fueled my own academic curiosity. Would absolutely recommend.
