I am a PhD candidate with 9 years of combined teaching and tutoring experience.

Steven
Undergraduate Math Student with College Tutoring Experience
It happens to all of us. Sometimes we end up with that one math professor who we just can't learn from. We sit in class and take all the notes we can, but for some reason it just doesn't click.

Languages have always been fascinating subjects for me and my fascination led me to choose two languages as my college majors - English Literature and Arabic grammar. I also studied French for six years at Middle and High School and also attended Ndebele classes (an African language) after completing college. My love and passion for languages compels me to engage my students to the best of my ability so that they too may discover the beauty of language, the power of language and how central... Read more
