I like to make children feel recognized and rewarded for being and doing their best. I will find out their motivations, their learning style, I will praise their effort; I will work hard on their weaknesses, even if it requires extra-time on my part. It is my belief that creating a good relationship with children, showing a sincere interest in their lives, contribute to establish an environment of mutual respect. I never give up on a student. My reward will come when parents come to me to thank my great job with their kids.
