I believe in my students and their ability to succeed. My energy, dedication, and patience motivate my students to persevere and not quit. I continually encourage m... Read more

What I love most about teaching and tutoring are the students I get to meet and push towards excellence. At the heart of every tutor/student interaction is the relationship built between the tutor and student. Learning requires both trust and understanding. With this as the bedrock, a successful academic relationship occurs organically between educator and student. Every person is unique and different - learning how to use one's unique set of skills to conquer any subject is the centerpie... Read more
