I’m not here to change your child. It’s not my goal. At the heart of my work with students and families is the belief that my students are already enough as they are. With this in mind, I intentionally craft and create a space where they can show up, as is, and risk imperfection. In doing so, students can build integral skills while learning to wholly accept who they are in the dynamic context of language and academics. Deepening the acceptance and appreciation of who we are allows us to be capable of discovering new approaches and making deeper shifts. Acceptance increases resilience, and resilience leads to greater capability. My holistic approach encourages deep growth in allowing students to unfold just as they are.
