Tutoring

I love teaching because I love learning. I have spent as much time as a student as I have as a teacher.

My years of being a student have made me a better teacher because I understand HOW people learn and I have become an expert at helping students learn and apply techniques that will get them results.

​

My family has helped me be a better teacher. I grew up with a special needs sister who is developmentally delayed. I raised a son with ADHD. These experiences have shaped me into a patient, open person.

​

I have an extensive background in the performing arts as a dancer, actor, singer, improviser and stand-up comedian. I engage students in learning through introducing an element of fun, no matter their age. Humour is one of the most powerful methods of making information accessible and memorable.

​

I am comfortable employing traditional educational methods such as rote learning, however, I usually find an innovative, fun and relevant way for each student to learn information that requires repetition.

With every student I encourage critical thinking, problem solving and independent thought.

​

My overall goal is to create an atmosphere in which my students feel they are an active participant in their own learning process.
