About Laura

Experience: 2 yrs

As a tutor with two years of experience, I'm passionate about helping students unlock their full potential through personalized support. I hold a master's degree in music and a bachelor's degree in music and pre-medicine. I enjoy creating engaging, patient learning environments that empower students to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I adapt my teaching methods to suit individual learning styles by using visual aids, hands-on activities, and open discussions. I keep students motivated by connecting challenging topics to real-world examples, celebrating successes, and breaking down problems into manageable steps. Open communication with students and parents is essential for understanding needs, setting expectations, and building trust. The most rewarding part of tutoring is witnessing a student's "aha!" moment and watching their confidence grow.
