How I Work With Kids
- I like to connect my students to the real world so that they understand why they are learning algebra, English grammar, writing skills or any other subject.
- I give clear, positive feedback to my students so that they learn from errors and engage new problem-solving strategies in their academics.
- I get to know my students because I believe I cannot teach a student whom I do not know.
