My philosophy in teaching is to build a solid foundation of knowledge through breaking down a particular subject and finding the specific causes of confusion for the student. It is also very important to explain what their teachers will expect from them on tests and homework. I will give test taking strategies and help them work their way through tests with efficiency to control some of the anxiety. I understand that all teaching techniques do not work for all students and I am willing and able to adjust appropriately. I have a passion for working with others and helping them reach their individual goals and potential in school, sport, and life. I find it very rewarding when students see improvement and gain a new found confidence in themselves. I would like an opportunity to show you!
Thank you very much for your consideration.
