Each student is unique and I always save a few minutes in each session to connect with students to understand their individual differences and learning styles. I think my degree in psychology helps me understand these learning styles and my experience as a librarian makes me customer service oriented. I try to make lessons as fun and straightforward as possible and to provide positive feedback so the student will feel encouraged heading into the next lesson.
The family is such an important part of the student's life and I welcome insights and suggestions. I am easy to reach and respond within 3 hours. Please feel free to contact me with questions or to schedule a lesson.
