My Story

Building Educational Foundations

My journey in education began with a simple belief: every student deserves personalized attention and the opportunity to succeed. After years of working in traditional classroom settings, I discovered my true passion lies in one-on-one tutoring where I can truly make a difference.

Educational Foundations was born from my desire to create a learning environment where students feel supported, challenged, and celebrated. I've seen firsthand how the right approach can transform a struggling student into a confident learner.
