On occasion, a question is posed that I don't feel confident addressing in the moment with accuracy. This is a teachable moment. I will let the student know I am unsure and we will briefly brainstorm the best keywords to use for a web search to model independent problem solving skills. If a quick answer does present itself, however, for efficiency I may table the question. In this case, later that same day I'll investigate and report back my findings so the student is sure to have the support and explanations they deserve.

Session summaries are available on request with the details you require, such as concepts covered, appraisal of student understanding and mastery, identification of critical skill deficits, resources for independent practice, updates on progress of written work, suggestions to grow academic habits, or any other specifics parents need in order to best support their child’s learning.

Over the coming year, a well-vetted and organized bank of links and videos for the big ideas and specific concepts of all high school courses will be built and continually refined. Clients can visit the bank at their leisure for timely support.

There are times when parents wrestle with a difficult educational decision or need advice on how to navigate an interaction with a teacher or how to support and motivate a child. In those times when a non-biased perspective is needed, my professional input is available to current clients.
