About
I have an older brother named Zachary who is neurodivergent, his brain works differently from an average persons. He has been treated as though he was "less than" a lot as a result but here's the thing, there's nothing I can do that he can't. He's a social butterfly, hard worker, kind to everyone, can and will explain nuclear fusion or anything else to you. He simply thinks and learns in a different way. I think a lot of students that really are trying get dismissed as lazy or unintelligent(just like Zachary) when really they are being asked to rewire their brain to process things in a way that is unnatural for them which leads them to be frustrated, unmotivated, and sometimes even pushes them to act out.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I prefer to spend a few minutes at the beginning just getting to know the student. What frustrates them? What do they feel they need help with? Is this particular concept especially challenging for them or do they feel that they are "just bad at math"? If math or school in general seems boring or pointless, what does interest them? This allows me to meet the student where they are to help them build confidence and motivation to succeed.
