Tutoring
I tutored a family of three children in the Schenectady City School District from July 2014 to June 2016. We worked together to learn about subjects that are relevant in 2nd-5th grade, often in reading, writing, mathematics, and sometimes art, history, and science. During the summer we regularly focused on all 6 subjects and sometimes participated in fun activities at the local library.
Private Art Lessons
I taught private art lessons to a 7th grade student in the Schenectady City School District. Developing a curriculum from scratch, I tried to give him a wide variety of art making experiences and expand his interests, understanding, and technical mastery in the arts. Below are some examples of his work.
Private Dance Lessons
I also tutored a student in dance. We practiced basic ballet movements and vocabulary to start. Then I taught choreography and we discussed how the body should appear and feel for each movement. Performance, emotion, expression, and technique were emphasized. She is now using those skills as a member of the Mohonasen Varsity Color Guard.
