Experience

I am here to help students achieve a higher stature of learning. I want to do away with the cliché “Teach to the test” and give students the opportunity to learn at their own pace and in a way that adheres to the individual. I believe success both in and out of the classroom stems from the ability to teach oneself. Once a student is shown how to succeed, they are able to nurture their own self-confidence and go on to influence others around them, becoming more than just another student. I believe in praising the process of learning rather than feeding into a student’s ego and praising their intelligence. Every student is intelligent in one way or another, the important aspect is to support a student through the process of learning. This encourages students to reach higher and become life-long learners.
