I studied philosophy and classics at St. John's College in Annapolis, Maryland; I studied law at University of Baltimore School of Law. Success in school often comes not merely from memorizing material, but from understanding the inherent structure of the material, and thus forming a method for applying the material to a new problem.

Marcelline
Georgetown U. Adjunct Faculty and International Business Pro
I have a passion for teaching and tutoring--seeing the lightbulb go on as my students reach that "Aha!" moment is what charges me up and keeps me coming back for more. My students have often told me that I make “complex stuff†make sense, which is what I think a tutor needs to do. My approach is focused on not only helping you learn the subject, but helping you learn to learn. My telling the student a bunch of information is just a recipe for rote memorization, not learning—so I don't do that... Read more
