Students learn the value of education, and become lifelong learners, readers, and critical thinkers. Vera's love for education stems from her upbringing: Her father, too, was a talented teacher and he always admired people who were well-read and articulate. As a child, Vera yearned for his love and approval, especially since she was constantly competing with her three older siblings. Motivated by this, Vera dedicated her life to becoming well-read and well-spoken. And now she empowers others to do the same. Furthermore, Vera helps students develop the skills they need for success in school by inspiring them to learn and teaching them the value of education. She designs her classes with the kind of energy that captivates and transforms students into lifelong readers, persuasive writers, and critical thinkers. Do you want your child to have strong reading, writing and critical thinking skills, too? Contact her today! 5 Star Reviews on Google. Call &ndash;&nbsp;718-790-8911.
