Specialties
My name is Alexandra Vinarnik. I have been passionate about teaching since I was 16 years old when I provided my first private lesson of the English language to a little girl. From then on I have been working with various students and helping them acquire a high level of knowledge of English, Russian, and French. I earned my first Master's degree in Linguistics and Translation Studies at Lomonosov Moscow State University. After moving to the USA I started working with exceptional children which sparked my passion for special education. I find it highly rewarding to see progress in my students' knowledge and behavior while helping them grow and become successful members of society. I ended up earning a Master's Degree in General and Special Education as well as teaching credentials in these areas which allows me to reach a greater population of students who need support. I also possess authorizations to teach students with autism spectrum disorders and English learners. My experience includes over 15 years of teaching in private and public schools in both general and special education settings. I am happy to share my experience and knowledge to help my young students of all abilities set a successful beginning of their life journey.
