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.

Biography and Background

Bio photo

I graduated from Providence College in 1986 with a major in Humanities.  I have extensive and varied business experience with the most recent being in finance.  I have worked for Fortune 500 companies as well as small, family run businesses.  As someone who used to struggle with math in my elementary school years and beyond, I get tremendous joy from helping kids understand math. If only Kumon had been available to me then!  I am a firm believer in the Kumon program, and I have seen kids go from being one year or more behind in their academics to excelling beyond grade level because of this program.  The old adage that "practice makes perfect" is true and it is evident as I see kids progress through this program.
