I am dedicated to teaching because I believe that every student is capable of learning the material that is required of them. While school can be difficult, it al... Read more

I'm here to help you succeed!
I've always been defined by my curiosity for new information. As long as I can remember I've enjoyed the process of learning, especially if I felt it was on my terms. I've been a voracious reader all my life, particularly of social science material. I was that kid who was obsessed with history class, outside of history class. Despite a willingness to learn, I was an average student in high school. I hadn't yet discovered how to merge my thirst for knowledge with the tools and strategies neede... Read more
