Teaching Philosophy
My approach is built on three core principles:
1. Individualized Learning: Each student receives a customized study plan tailored to their specific needs and learning style.
2. Progressive Methodology: I employ the "I do, we do, you do" teaching strategy to build confidence and competence systematically.
3. Independence-Focused: My ultimate goal is to develop self-reliant learners who can tackle future challenges independently.
I work most effectively with motivated students who are invested and engaged in their academic success. While maintaining high standards, I serve as both mentor and partner in your educational journey. If you seek a dedicated mentor who will invest in your academic growth and future success, I welcome the opportunity to work with you.
