Who We Are
We believe that learning should be a fun experience devoid of too much pressure. We aim to encourage curiosity and a willingness to take chances while fully participating. Too much emphasis is often put on the final outcome; the joy of learning and the freedom to make mistakes along the way is frequently lost. We create an environment with our students where expressing a lack of understanding is all just a part of the learning process and not something to ever be embarrassed about. Each student has individualized needs that are taken into consideration throughout tutoring to ensure that they can meet their unique goals.
