Bio
I am a seasoned professional with many years of experience in the creative and educational fields. I take great joy in helping learners of all ages achieve their learning goals.
I appreciate and respect the fact that each individual is unique. Each learner has to chart her/his own path to success. I try to identify exactly where each learner is on her/his journey and where it is they hope to get to. This allows us to chart a course and set out together. Above all, I try to be a considerate, non-judgmental and patient companion on the road to academic achievement.
