SUBJECTS
EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
I believe in helping students find the tools within themselves, to take down the obstacles in front of them. I encourage my students to think outside the box and try new ways of looking at a subject. Pushing outside of your comfort zone can lead to discovering new talents!
