Bio:   I'm Diane Miller. I began my journey to becoming an Educational Therapist as a classroom teacher turned Resource Teacher turned tutor during the pandemic. In 2023 I moved to southern California and was introduced to the Integrated learning Institute by the principal of Kings Schools. I met with Cynthia Moses and observed her working with two students using NILD techniques. I was amazed at the techniques she used which far surpassed my tutoring skills. I've always believed that anyone can learn if the "teacher" works with how the students brain works. The NILD techniques and mission aligned with everything I believed, but didn't know existed. I am so grateful to God for leading me to a place where I can truly work with anyone and help them become independent learners. Working with students has been the most rewarding and fulfilling thing I've ever done.
