About the Instructor

Introduction

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a mentor who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan 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. Like all Kumon Instructors, I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children succeed.


Learning from the best students and empowering the other potential students to challenge themselves is a constant effort of mine.


As a Kumon parent myself, I have seen both sides of the program as an Instructor and Parent. My kids have given me a great opportunity to understand Kumon from the student's perspective - which has helped me to create better study plans and set goals for my students
