Meet Elana

     As a parent, I’ve watched my own children prosper personally and academically once they become aware of how they learn and then created a toolbox of skills to help guide them through various life scenarios as they grow into adulthood.  It wasn’t always easy, and each milestone - - becoming more responsible, advocating for oneself, and careful consideration when making decisions, has created young adults with a mindset, although hesitant about what the future holds, ready for the challenges to make a difference.  This is the comfort I wish to bring to your family.  Creating a child who is clear, confident, and capable of setting and achieving goals.

​

     As a teacher, my educational philosophy is that a child’s growth is like a three-legged stool in which each leg represents the child, the parent(s), and the teacher.  Our goal as a group is to act as a balance of support to reinforce personal responsibility, think critically, and communicate effectively to engage positively in and outside of the classroom.

​

     As your coach, the joy that is experienced when a child begins to master a skill that has been difficult is exhilarating because it builds confidence and creates useful tools for him/her to accomplish the next goal.  I want to bring that same feeling of confidence and excitement to your child and your family and make life a little bit easier.
