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.

I have worked with hundreds of children, helping them achieve higher levels of math and reading. At our center we love to see children thrive once they are given the right level of work and praise for their studies. 

As a former Kumon student myself and a current Kumon parent, I genuinely believe in this methodology. Kumon is a truly transformative program that instills self-confidence and a solid foundation for students to build on and achieve any professional goal they can dream of. We are so excited to partner with you in unlocking the full potential of your children.
