Background:
I’m Julia, an educator with over fifteen years of experience. I’ve taught secondary school students and undergraduates, and my career has spanned three countries: the US, France, and the UK. My educational approaches are enriched by research into best teaching practices, neurodiversity, and equity and inclusivity in education. I love providing students with strategies that allow them to work with instead of against the ways their minds naturally work. This way, students are empowered to develop their strengths, approach difficult tasks strategically, and strive to meet high standards while feeling supported emotionally. I believe that students are most likely to succeed when they feel understood, supported, and free to be their authentic selves. When I’m not working, I enjoy reading, listening to music, watching movies, creating art, and spending time with friends and family.
