I have been in the education field for nine years. I taught Math at elementary and middle school level in my first five years, and I have been working as a learning consultant for the past four years. My role in our CST team generally includes determining the learning strengths and weaknesses of students, determining specific achievement levels in a variety of content areas, and recommending specific teaching methods and strategies that may benefit a student. I work in collaboration with other members of a child study team to determine eligibility for special services. I also consult with parents, teachers, and other school personnel to provide research-based instructional strategies to assist pupils struggling academically. I am glad to have the opportunity to serve the children of New Milford Community, and help them reach their full potential.
