Why CLC?
I have always had a passion for making learning fun and equitable for all! Giving a child a safe and fun place to learn and grow is one of the greatest gifts you can give them. CLC goes above and beyond academics, providing students with opportunities to learn how to advocate for themselves, communicate effectively, help them discover their passions, and guide them to the pathway that will help them reach their full potential. My goal is to bring high quality academic support and enrichment to the entire community!

Why CLC?
I want to work at CLC because I deeply believe in the organization’s mission to empower students and families through individualized learning and mentoring. Having worked with children in Summit County, I’ve seen the challenges many families face due to limited educational resources.I am excited to contribute to CLC’s goal of expanding programming and ensuring it serves all ethnic and socio-economic groups in the county. I believe every student deserves the opportunity to thrive in a learning environment that recognizes their unique needs and strengths. I am eager to help students discover their own imagination, empowering them to envision new possibilities and find creative paths to success.

Learning should be fun and fruitful! CLC’s mission of individualized learning in a supportive environment gives us an opportunity to build strong relationships with students and focus on what each student really needs. 1:1 tutoring allows us to pull from a wide variety of resources and techniques to find something that works for every child.
