Bio
I believe in a my size fits me philosophy because all students learn differently. I believe that constructive feedback will allow a student to show a teacher or tutor what they are learning and will help the teacher or tutor understand the best way to instruct the student for success. I want to help students achieve levels of success (whether small or large) to prove that they can do what they do not think they can do. I want students to understand that I am committed to them as learners and as a human, so that they can be successful in life. I love building relationships with students and investing in what they are interested. I believe that creating a supportive environment helps build relationships with students that are meaningful and last a lifetime. I love learning from my students, and in my 15 years as a teacher I have learned more from students than I think they have learned from me. I love creating a fun learning environment for my students.
