15 years experience teaching

The studies have proven that most of what we retain through learning- is by "doing" or engaging in the process on a multitude of levels. If you are looking for a tutor that is going to be hands-on, fun and dynamic, I can provide lessons that will take you or your child into that next level of comprehension. When it comes to creating a personalized structure and success plan, I can help you achieve results that will keep them focused, and more importantly- motivated.

However, the long term goal is to stimulate an intrinsic motivation that will maintain a healthy desire to continue the learning process on their own. I strongly believe we can achieve that together.

I have 15 years of teaching experience that has been centered around the importance of student-centered learning. This approach has enabled me to create stimulating lesson plans and curriculum that uses the creative process along with essential critical thinking skills. With a M.Ed in cross-cultural teaching, I have an incredible wealth of experience when it comes to assessing the challenges that students face in the classroom. Let's help our students maintain a thirst for learning and a drive that will help them achieve their dreams." less...
