"TPT Teaching and Coaching is exceptionally unique. A beautiful support service indeed. You coach and speak from experience. It's very inspiring how you have a positive influence on my son. A delightful moment was when he said: “she instructs and encourages me to finish a very challenging paper.”

"Even though she is so good at professionalism, she does not forget to humanize it and connects with students at a personal level to help them further and make them more comfortable. I remember when I was going through a difficult situation academically and emotionally, she encouraged me not to drop courses and work harder. She tried to talk to me and understand me like a friend, helped me understand what I needed to correct and genuinely showed care and concern."

Her favorite moment of being there for a student: "Even though she is so good at professionalism, she does not forget to humanize it and connects with students at a personal level to help them further and make them more comfortable.

Precision
I marry the student's/individual’s specific cognitive style, emotional nuances, and their ADHD/LD neuroanatomy with practical and creative strategies that maximize daily results. It is a lot, but it is a lot of fun when I focus on discovering the student’s/individual’s intellectual landscapes, creativity wells, and personality orbits in terms of strengths and unique traits. A bit of a bookish nerd, but I like this creative process a whole lot as a certified coach and licensed instructor. It's like giving someone a tuxedo fit, except this is an educational and motivational fit.
The more I thoroughly observe how an individual absorbs and then verbalizes his/her understanding. Immediately, I will see how their brain pathways are wired and illuminated almost like an outline of a lighted lantern on a dark background. Using ADHD science and learning science, I can connect the dots on how a student/individual thinks and this informs me what specific tools and strategies that may elevate progress and yield results. In a nutshell, I help my students and adult ADHDers find an "in" to their personal lighthouse using brain hack strategies.
