Laura Carbonaro
Instructor
Laura Carbonaro, Sylvan Instructor
I am a new instructor with Sylvan Learning Center and am enjoying getting to know the students and other staff members. I have a bachelor degree in secondary education, majoring in Earth Science and minoring in mathematics and geology. While living in Washington State I taught both middle school and high school. I also did some substitute teaching in middle, high and alternative high schools. I have tutored children in the past and really enjoy the one-on-one instruction delivery. While earning my degree in education I taught an after school science program called Mad Science. As a Mad Science instructor I visited elementary schools in the area and delivered science curriculum in a fun and interactive way to students that were signed up for the program. The program ran about six weeks, with one after school session per week. I also worked as a camp counselor during one summer for an area day camp. As a camp counselor we honed in on outdoor skills such as archery, compassing, campfire cooking, kayaking and so forth. I am looking forward to my time at Sylvan Learning Center and helping students to achieve academic success!
