About Me

I am a motivated and enthusiastic tutor with over 20 years of experience in tutoring students of all different ages. I have served as everything from a full-time classroom teacher, to a small group mentor, to a one-on-one tutor. I have mentored virtually every age learner, from Pre-K to adult, and have experience with everything from home-education to private and parochial schools to public school education. When I'm not teaching, tutoring, or mothering my own 7 children, I enjoy a variety of activities. I love being outdoors in general, but my passion is for rock climbing. I also enjoy reading all kinds of literature and philosophy and cheering my kids on in their myriad sports and activities. My number one priority in teaching is to empower my students to understand how they learn best and what motivates them. I want my students to feel a passion for learning, even if they do not feel it for every subject. I have been told that I bring energy, enthusiasm, and creativity to the learning environment, and that these qualities are contagious. I hope to pass this enthusiasm for learning on to my students and that my students will, in turn, pass it on to those around them.

Q&A with Natasha

My teaching philosophy is very much about empowering the student to learn independently. If a student can identify how they learn best, then all studies and disciplines open up to them. In addition, if students can hone their analytic, reading, communication, and study skills, while at the same time opening themselves up to many different disciplines in order to discover what they are most passionate about, they become endowed with an unmistakable confidence in their own ability. This confidence, together with the curiosity that is conceived from such habits of study, is what engenders the greatness of mind that has so often brought about positive change in the world.
