Ms. Thibault’s Teaching Journey
My Passion for Teaching
Teaching has been my calling for as long as I can remember. From a young age, I’ve been driven by a deep desire to make a difference in the lives of students. Over the years, I’ve become increasingly aware of the disparities in traditional education systems and how they often fail to meet the diverse needs of learners. This realization fuels my passion to create an environment where every student has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their background or learning style. I am committed to challenging the status quo and striving for a more effective, inclusive, and equitable approach to education. For me, teaching is not just a career—it’s a mission to empower students and ignite their potential in meaningful ways.
My Teaching Philosophy
I believe that every learner is unique, and as such, no single teaching method should be applied universally. Each student deserves a personalized educational experience that meets their individual needs. One-on-one instruction is a powerful tool for providing immediate, constructive feedback, allowing students to grow rapidly and confidently. I also value a balance between explicit instruction and inquiry-based learning, which fosters curiosity and empowers students to explore and develop their own understanding of the world. By embracing a flexible and responsive teaching approach, I aim to support students in their journey to becoming independent, thoughtful, and lifelong learners.
Future Goals for My Business
As my tutoring business continues to grow, I have a clear set of goals aimed at expanding the reach and impact of my services. The first step is to offer online tutoring in AP Environmental Science and Biology—subjects that are close to my heart, thanks to my background in biology and a deep connection with earth sciences. My vision doesn’t stop there; I am also working towards opening a dedicated tutoring center where students can receive personalized, in-person support. The ultimate dream, however, is to create a natural-learning center—an educational space that blends the power of learning with the beauty of the outdoors. This center would provide students with immersive, hands-on experiences that inspire both academic growth and a lifelong appreciation for the environment.
