Teaching philosophy

We believe that each student has the ability to master any subject matter if presented with love and empowerment. We meet each student where they are, cultivating a learning environment which fosters each individual’s learning potential. Our varying education backgrounds enable us to cover a wide range of continuing education courses. This is our definition of educating from the heart.
