Teaching is my passion!

I love to build and enrich the academic lives of my students.

I tailor a unique program to fit the needs of each student.

I have a dynamic way of teaching by responding to the student's response.

I scaffold so your child learns in a way that is most successful and builds confidence.

It is wonderful to watch students experience the joy of success where they once experienced frustration and dissapointment. 

It is important for students to discover their own self direction and believe in their capacity to learn.

 I believe in a collaborative approach. I find that each professional who has worked with the student is a valuable resource of information.

My program is based on current scientific research on academic success.

Over my years of working with students, I have developed an effective way of structuring for success.

I use evidence based methods and have developed a very sophisticated scaffolding technology that empowers students to learn, practice and master skill areas that once felt overwhelming. 

I like to have a sense of enthusiasm and excitement even when we are doing very targeted practice.

Students succeed and grow in confidence and experience a sense of mastery in a task that was once overwhelming.
