I am a recently retired elementary school teacher with twenty-four years of experience working on Long Island, NY. I am a compassionate, fun educator with a calm demeanor. My vast years of experience working with a diverse student body gave me a unique perspective on how to provide differentiated instruction to students. Utilizing this valuable background, I will create individualized programs in reading, writing and math specifically tailored to your child, while working to boost their confidence and meet their academic and social needs. I have a wonderful wife and 2 grown successful sons, who I am very proud of. In my spare time I enjoy playing in a competitive tennis league as well as playing guitar.
