As a Montessori-trained teacher with over 25 years of experience, I am deeply passionate about fostering children's natural curiosity and love for learning. My educational background includes a Bachelor in Philosophy from the University of Mumbai, which enriches my teaching approach. I specialize in elementary school math, reading, and phonics, and I believe in using hands-on, concrete materials to make abstract concepts accessible. For instance, I create engaging stories and materials to teach phonics and math, helping students connect with the material in a meaningful way. I prioritize each child's unique pace and learning style, ensuring they feel supported and confident. Witnessing the joy on a child's face when they grasp a new concept drives my passion for tutoring. I look forward to continuing my journey in education and making a positive impact on my students' academic success.
