Academic Confidence Building Approach
Individual, personal attention to each student’s academic needs and learning style.
Educational Philosophy
It is my firm belief that every child comes into this world with a zest for learning. As a teacher, my role is to nurture that zest as well as to support students in reclaiming it if they reach a period of diminished interest. Students with the ability to approach learning with enthusiasm achieve academic success not only in areas of high interest, they can also find that engaging with subject areas of less appeal more interesting.
I have seen incalculable benefits result when families reach out for educational support as they negotiate passage through our educational system. In my one-on-one work with students, I have experienced consistent success boosting their academic confidence and performance.
