My teaching is fundamentally collaborative, and is centered on developing insight and learning how to learn. I focus above all on conceptual understanding, as well as the routine and repetition needed to solidify that understanding.
I help my students learn how to work with their minds, with an emotionally supportive approach grounded in patience and flexibility. This can range from helping a struggling student feel comfortable and confident enough to unlock their potential to helping a high-achieving student learn to push themselves without burning out.
Throughout the course of our sessions, in addition to learning the course material, my students also learn how to study productively, how to manage and complete homework, and how to navigate the classroom environment. My students become better learners, leading to academic improvements while focusing on more than letter gradesexclusively.
