I received my Neuro-Linguistic Specialist Certification in order to maximize my understanding of brain plasticity and how it impacts the learning of our children, teens and adults. I have coached and tutored private clients with learning challenges in Maryland, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.I tutor a broad range of subjects and ages but am most passionate about resolving learning challenges in the elementary students.
