History

Established in 2011.

As a former Grade school teacher I specialized in helping children and teens with their spelling, vocabulary, composition, creative writing, grammar, home work completion and reading skills. I am qualified to help students from level K — Grade 12.

University Education — Completing university degree with a focus in communication studies and international relations. I also have a working knowledge of both conversational and written French and Spanish.

Teaching methods — Focus on finding children’s strengths and helping them overcome their hurdles by simplifying lessons. Every child is an individual and once his or her learning style is discovered their potential can be maximized. I also find creative and interactive ways to help the child or teenager retain knowledge. Specific goals and problem areas can be discussed with both guardians and the students involved.
