Union College (Schenectady, NY)

Hi! I'm Chloe! I am a 3rd grade teacher in Maine. I previous taught in Virginia for 3 years, and 1 year in Connecticut. I attended Teachers College at Columbia University where I received instruction in Gifted Education. I completed my Masters at Sacred Heart University with a concentration in elementary education. Being able to work in different educational settings has shaped my perspective on teaching, and every child loves being engaged and interested in what they are learning. From my perspective and experience thus far, every child learns in a different way, and a teacher and tutor must take that into account. I work to effectively account for children's individual skills and interests. Perhaps most importantly, I have learned to stay positive and patient when working with children. It may take some time for them to learn a concept, but once they understand it, they feel satisfied and accomplished. That is why I became a teacher; to facilitate a love of learning and curiosity!

I have been caring for children for the past 15 years for individual families. I have cared for infants all the way up to middle school age children. I love being with kids and doing craft projects and outdoor activities. I am able to help with schoolwork. I have my own vehicle and am able to drive the kids as well. I am currently in nursing school with the goal is being a nurse practitioner. I graduated from Union College in 2018, and I'm 26 years old. Right out of college, I nannied full time (50hrs/week) for three children (3mo, 4yr, & 7yr old) for a year and a half. I left to pursue my medical career. After a year of working as a medical assistant, I miss nannying greatly. I love children and I'm on track to become a pediatric nurse practitioner! I am CPR certified. I am also a certified EMT and Medical Assistant. I have been fully COVID-19 vaccinated.
