  • I am a certified teacher and mom of 3. I believe that it takes time for a child to grasp a concept and that is why I'm here.
  • I want to help build and encourage your child to his/her highest potential.

About Me

Sometimes it takes me repetitive times until it clicks. I believe some children need a different environment for things to come in place and it makes a huge difference if its in an encouraging environment and where your child feels comfortable. I want to encourage, teach, and build confidence in your child. Everyone doesn't learn to walk at the same age, and the same applies to learning. When I think of what I would want in a tutor for my child, I think of someone who is patient yet persistent, caring yet committed. I am that tutor.

Q&A with Lonnie

All children can learn. We didn't learn to walk at the same time, and some of us need more time than others to process a concept. I like to say that we may not be there "YET" but we will get there! Creating a supportive environment is very important for the student. It is critical to make a connection with my student in order to keep him/her engaged. How can you help a student become an independent learner? By modeling the way, working with him one on one, and then encouraging him to take the risk and do it on his own. How would you help a student stay motivated?
