Certified and Experienced! Specializing in English and MAth
About a decade ago I graduated from college. I was a sharp kid (I graduated with honors) but I didn't have much direction.

With this method I've managed to have students who hated chemistry in the beginning come to appreciate it by the end of their course. When it comes to... Read more
