As a degreed Educator, I am well-versed in typical learning styles and disabilities both common and rare. My lessons are tailored to each individual student's needs. I do not use one specific program or curriculum; instead, I use whatever method or program will be of most success for my student. For this reason, I charge $40/hour for students of any age. I offer military, educator, and first responder discounts as well as discounts for pre-paying for lessons (purchase 3 weeks, get the 4th week free).
