🌿 My Approach: The Root‑to‑Leaf Method

I use a simplified version of my educational philosophy to support tutoring students:

🌱 The Roots — Foundational Skills

We identify gaps, strengths, and learning patterns through gentle diagnostics.

🌿 The Stem — Strategy & Growth

Students learn tools that help them understand how they learn best.

πŸƒ The Leaf — Confidence & Independence

We celebrate progress, build self‑advocacy, and help students feel capable and proud.
