Bill
Seasoned English Teacher - Tutor for Writing, Reading, Test Prep

Once I know the student, then we can proceed to build on their skills. I listen well, and I encourage students to learn for the sake of learning, not necessarily to improve grades or test scores (although, those improvements wil... Read more
