Nicole
Elementary/Middle School Teacher Specialty in Math/Science/L.A.

A tutor should do this by remaining open-minded, dedicated, and passionate. Students succeed the most when they have high yet obtainable expectations set for them. Tutors owe it to their students to be consistent, supportive, and confident i... Read more
