Fierce School Solutions
With my consulting services, I bring over 25 years of college-prep, classroom teaching and academic advising experience, grades 5 through 12.
My focus is collaborating with students, helping them find their strengths, and developing skills and strategies that enable them to feel a sense of achievement.
Finding incremental successes and practicing a growth mindset, my students experience boosts in confidence and find themselves increasingly independent and confident in and out of school. I have proven success with all types of learners and use resources that I have developed over decades in the classroom.
Work in partnership with me so that I can help you understand your individual learning style and based on that knowledge develop personalized learning strategies that are both effective and efficient.
Let me join you on your academic journey. I am available for online consulting and tutoring sessions virtually anytime, anywhere. References available upon request.
