Bio
Hello! I am excited to introduce myself and begin our educational journey together. I am a passionate, experienced educator and I enjoy learning new things from my students. I believe creating organic relationships with students and meeting students where they are is the best recipe for success. Using customized lessons and monitoring individualized progress allows each session to reach it's maximum potential. I encourage students to ask questions, express learning needs and celebrate all successes in and out of the classroom. While facilitating lessons, I use a variety of techniques such as paper and pencil, technology and learning games to engage all learning styles. During the lessons, students can expect constant and immediate feedback to guide the learning process and encourage mastery. I pride myself in being able to give clear directions and having patience. Together we will reach and exceed student's learning goals.
