With experience and training in psychology and evaluation, I bring a unique approach to working with each child as an individual, quickly assessing learning style, making the most of strengths while coaxing the gradual improvement of what is more challenging. One thing I've learned is that all of us love doing what we are good at and success breeds more success so working with that success, tapping into your child's perception of self as learning, productive, and accomplishing whatever goals they set for themselves. Success breeds success and a good teacher creates an environment that begins at a nexus of challenge sufficient to excite and entertain while also possible. I believe that positive reinforcement is effective and discouragement can be avoided. My experiences are extensive both academically and in real world applications which serve to bring what students learn and study to lif

I have a masters degree in psychology, specializing in child development. During my undergraduate studies, I minored in music and English. In recent years, I have taught music and English to both children and adults. I also have a great deal in knowledge in other subject areas, like history, religion, and even a little Spanish. Very simply, I believe that an instructor should be a facilitator of the learning process, not a dictator. The best learning is that which is done by the student him/herself through experiencing and seeing things firsthand. I strive to get to know my students and make my tutoring sessions unique and tailored to fit each individual student's needs.
