About the Instructor

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a motivator who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan with your students in addition to monitoring classroom assignments, and I emphasize the importance of accurately completing each assignment within a designated time frame. This has helped many of my students increase self-confidence, thus becoming more self-reliant.  I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children of Encinitas succeed.

Just like you, my interest in Kumon started with looking for an educational advantage for my children. I was working as a NICU RN for 15 years when I decided to make a career change. I opened my first Kumon Center in 2005 and my second center shortly after. In that time, I've helped over one thousand students with over 70% of them reaching grade level or beyond within a year or less.
