Tutoring Approach
I have a firm but fair, person-centered approach. I believe my success with my students is a result of building trust and finding a 'way in' with students by getting to know their interests. I encourage my students to believe in themselves; for example, adding the word 'yet' to 'can't', will act as a powerful vehicle to bring about positive change!
