Each student has different needs and different learning styles. When I meet a student, I try to adapt to the each student's distinctive learning style. More generally, I engage students with the material by asking lots of questions designed to open up new ways of perceiving the material. Where possible, I try to make learning a multisensory experience, incorporating visualization of data, reading written work aloud, and listening for clues to the solution of a problem.

Education is of utmost importance to me, and I believe that all children can learn, but some lack the study skills necessary to succeed in school. While in pursuit of my psychology major at Converse College, I attended various classes and seminars on learning styles. I feel that each child has its own potential, and if we as educators can empower students to feel as though they can succeed, great things happen.
