About Me

With a diverse career spanning multiple countries and roles, I have gained invaluable insights into educational progress, addressing learning challenges, and most importantly, making learning engaging and effective. My mission is to harness the best research and transform it into fun, effective, and memorable learning experiences.

My Approach

As a creative and fun-loving individual, I am deeply committed to understanding how humans learn best. I believe that education should not only be effective but also enjoyable. By leveraging the latest research, I supercharge learning to help children thrive. One of my greatest passions is supporting early readers, laying a strong foundation for confident, independent learners.

What I Offer

Throughout my career, I discovered a unique ability to simplify complex topics and make learning accessible to all children. I use social and emotional connections to engage children and make content relatable. My approach is highly individualized, ensuring every child can achieve their true potential.

I have authored numerous curriculum resources on children’s rights, literacy, and educational psychology topics for teachers, educators and psychologists. Additionally, I have held part-time university lecturing positions, teaching aspiring educators about effective teaching and learning strategies. Mentoring student teachers and working directly with young children are among my greatest joys.

My Experience

With over 25 years of teaching experience in both public schools and private practice, I have had the privilege of learning from many children and their parents. I understand the challenges parents face and their desire to provide the best for their children. My aim is to bridge the gap by offering accessible, high-quality online courses addressing common difficulties children experience in school.

These courses are designed to deliver maximum impact with minimal time investment, catering to the needs of busy parents. I am here to help you help your child succeed.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. Together, we can unlock your child’s full potential.
