Welcome to an Engaging Learning Experience! In my classroom, every student is at the heart of the learning journey. I believe that education is most effective when it is personalized and interactive, which is why my teaching style is centered around one-on-one engagement and dynamic dialogue. **For Students:** Imagine a classroom where your voice is heard, your ideas are valued, and your curiosity is the driving force. In our one-on-one sessions, we dive deep into subjects, exploring concepts through lively discussions and hands-on activities. Whether we're tackling complex math problems, analyzing literature, or conducting science experiments, you'll find that learning is not just about memorizing facts but about understanding and applying knowledge in real-world contexts. I strive to create a supportive and encouraging environment where you feel comfortable asking questions and expressing your thoughts. Together, we will set goals, track your progress, and celebrate your achievements. My aim is to make learning enjoyable and relevant, helping you develop critical thinking skills and a lifelong love for learning. **For Parents:** As a parent, you want the best for your child's education, and I am committed to providing a learning experience that is both enriching and engaging. My teaching approach is tailored to meet the unique needs of each student, ensuring that they receive the individual attention they deserve. Through interactive dialogue and personalized instruction, I help students build confidence, improve their academic performance, and develop essential skills for future success. I maintain open communication with parents, providing regular updates on your child's progress and involving you in the learning process. Together, we can create a supportive network that fosters your child's growth and development. My goal is to inspire and motivate students, helping them reach their full potential in a positive and nurturing environment. ___________________________________________ This 4-week course will be held once a week for an hour each.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello!
My name is Mr. Will and I love working with students who learn differently! I have a background in Psychology & Special education, and currently an administrator at an accredited college of higher education. I am passionate about working with all types of learners, especially those with ADHD, Dyslexia, ASD or other specific learning differences.
I teach 6th - 12th Grade, specializing in the following:
- Authentic Awareness - Understanding your Learning Difference
- Emotional Regulation
- Executive Functioning
- Academic Accommodation Request Process
- IDEA vs. ADA
- Understanding College Level Supports
- The College Search - Identifying the right fit
- Parent Support Workshops
As a neurodiverse learner myself, I am looking to connect with students on a level I can relate to. It is important for students to understand that while they may receive the information differently, they are 100% capable of success.
Over the past 12 years, I have worked with hundreds of families, encouraging parents to take the necessary step back while supporting students own their education journey by jumping into the driver's seat.
All classes will incorporate Authentic awareness and Executive functioning skill building.
