I believe that it is important to take the time to get to know each student's needs and to set realistic goals that will set them up for long-term success. By paying attention to what inspires the student and how they take in information most effectively, I can successfully tailor my instruction.

I will always find a way to use the lesson time effectively regardless of the level of preparation that a student is able to commit to in a given week. Read More
