There is nothing more joyful than when a student finally understands the material in a way that makes sense to them. Many times, students need flexibility and...

This understanding allows me to help students manage their test-taking anxiety and challenge any negative beliefs that get in their way. I believe that intelligence is not fixed (and this idea is backed by neuroscience) and...

Through this and my past experiences tutoring, I have come up with many different strategies for learning and ways to address a student???s different learning style as well. During my spare time, I love trying new things, completing jigsaw puzzles (my current challenge is a 2000 piece puzzle!), learning how to sew and make my own clothes, and just being outside and exploring the area.... My teaching philosophy lies in getting to the root of the problem. I want to know exactly what the students are struggling with and help them specifically in that regard in order to see them improve.
