Hobbies

I think respecting and celebrating the unique style of each individual learner is important. I've worked with kids of various ages, with distinct learning habits and preferences. I've also worked part-time at an independent free school in Brooklyn. I believe in making the student feel comfortable and confident at all times in the process, while also emphasizing the challenges ahead. I'm creative, and a lot of fun!
