Math nerd with a passion to teach others!

I began tutoring independently upon graduation and haven't stopped since! I have helped: children as young as 6 years old, elderly students taking online classes, individuals with lea... Read more

It has been said that you can't fix a bad drawing with paint - and I have seen this to be true no matter what kind of "paint" the creator chooses to apply! Good drawing skills can and should be learned by anyone who wishes to communicate in a visual medium. I take a very traditional approach to dra... Read more
