Frequently Asked Questions

Book a session or email me to arrange an initial meeting, where we can truly partner together. This is an opportunity for me to learn more about your child's interests, strengths, weaknesses, and goals. This is where we go above and beyond to discuss your child’s unique strengths, challenges, and goals. Together, we'll decide on the ideal frequency and subject matter to create a strategic roadmap for their success. We will also discuss schedules and find the dates/times and location that will work best for tutoring sessions. I look forward to collaborating with you!

My approach as an educator is rooted in intentional planning. Every tutoring session is meticulously crafted to be in your child’s Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). Think of the ZPD as the sweet spot between what your child can do on their own and what is currently too difficult. By targeting this zone, we focus on the skills they are ready to learn next, ensuring they are challenged without being overwhelmed. This is how we build a strong, lasting foundation for their future.

Our sessions are designed to be individualized, rigorous, and success-assured. I use a variety of fun, engaging activities and real-world examples to make learning stick. We also utilize growth mindset exercises to help your child see that their intelligence can grow with effort, building the confidence they need to tackle any academic challenge.

By celebrating every small win and focusing on their specific needs, we create a positive cycle of learning and achievement, giving your child the tools to not just succeed, but to thrive.
