About Me

Hello! I'm a Second Grade Teacher during the school year, and I teach STEAM (STEM + Art) classes in the summer. I graduated in 2013 from The College of New Jersey with a dual major of Elementary Education and Math/Science/Technology. My vast experiences working with children have allowed me to grow as an educator and develop valuable skills in order to connect with each student individually and differentiate instruction to meet the needs of each child. I work incredibly hard to ensure that my students are being supported in all areas. I use positive reinforcement and foster students' independence to ensure that they will be successful even after we are done our lessons. I have successfully tutored a number of students outside of school since becoming a teacher. I collaborate often with students' parents to make them feel that they are a part of the learning process.

Q&A with Julie

I think it is imperative that we, as educators, are continually striving to find the inner strength and talent that all students possess. Every child has his/her own individual talents, whether he/she is aware of them or not. I believe it is my job to find these strengths and help bring them out. Creating a strong connection with students helps me to be able to reach them academically. A large part of students wanting to learn is the confidence that they have in themselves and their ability to accomplish a task. Understanding that their teacher has confidence in them will help to fuel a positive association with learning. If students can tell that I care about them and their mastery of a skill, they are much more likely to put forth a good effort. My goal is to foster a love of learning in my students and give them the opportunity to discover their potential.
