I make sure that the students feels comfortable with materials, but is also challanged so that they may progress in their skills. Read More

I would have to say my main approach to teaching is figuring out what works best for each individual student, seeing as though everyone learns differently and at different paces. Forcing a student to learn something when they don't want to is something I do not allow, I can only encourage but not force. Read More
