Gabriel
Understanding and patient tutor who explains in new ways
I have always been above average at math. I finished 2 years of calculus in high school (during which I tutored some class mates) but I'm also aware that gifts come on a spectrum. I've been given great opportunities that allow me to better connect with people that I am working with and don't make them feel bad. For example, I was in my second year of calculus at 17 years old. For many people who struggle at math, that would be intimidating, but a 12 year old taught the class. I've also worked... Read more
Kathleen
Katy - Art Educator, Illustrator, and Watercolor Artist
My inspiration is nature. I grew up on the great plains of central Wyoming - which has proved to be much of my artwork's subject matter. This constant exposure to nature in the Rocky Mountains has given me inspiration to recreate it's beauty through original artwork. Artists like Claude Monet and Renoir also inspire me to use nature as my muse through their color pallet and subject matter. My style comes through my line work - the complicated forms and shapes that simple lines take o... Read more
