My name is Maia Moore. I was
born and raised in New York City. I am an only child and have a
mom and dad who are very supportive, loving people!
I have always been passionate about working with people, language, and learning. In 2016 I
graduated from Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts with my Bachelors in Psychology
and Spanish.
A year later I received my Master of Arts in Teaching, certified in Sheltered English
Immersion. I spent 2016-2017 student teaching 3rd grade and loved it! Working with so many
children from different places and languages was my favorite part.
Since then I have been
volunteering in an elementary school in NYC and tutoring children in Spanish.
In the past I helped young people learn about the complicated U.S. college application process.
During college I volunteered as a Peer Adviser, welcoming new students to our University and
helping them adjust to college life. I got to help international students better understand American
culture. I also worked as a Teacher’s Assistant, leading class discussions in Spanish to various
levels. During the summers I work at a psychiatric hospital in the pediatric outpatient unit. It was
there that I learned more about mental health and therapy. Through my Master’s program I was
able to integrate some of these values, such as openness, emotional regulation, and selfreflection,
into my teaching.
Some things I like to do for fun… Dance! I was my university’s ballroom dance team president, and
wrote my senior thesis about the relationship between the tango and therapy!
