I believe that each student responds to direct personal interest in him or her as a person first, and then as a learner. A child yearns to be noticed and appreciated for his unique talents and interests, so I start there. I am a low-key but enthusiastic and energetic person who relates to the struggles of the learner.

My teaching follows the experiential learning paradigm with a focus on utilizing the student’s inherent creative skills in order to relate information and pursue skill attainment and enhancement. The tutoring will be very “hands-on” for the student during the sessions, getting them to actively participate in a learning atmosphere by targeting multiple skill-sets, modes of learning, and intelligences. The top priority is providing an educational “experience,” rather than just relaying information, in order to help youth grow as humans, as well as students. Communication has always been an interest of mine so I pursued a journalism degree and spent many hours in education to be an adept communicator through the written word.
