I have been a lifelong student of the theatre, from the time as a child that I was taken to see productions in Chicago. I acted in high school and college, and have never outgrown my early love of seeing live performance. In college I studied English, and have read most of the dramatic literature of the English, American and French theatre. There is no way to learn about theatre better than reading plays aloud, so I would definitely incorporate that technique into my tutoring.

We are expecting a lot of Jack in terms of him accepting responsibility for our boys grades, period. To date he has met this tough expectation re: his commitment level, and in addition to the instructional requirements is coaching our boys on big-picture skills and the 'why' behind it all. My 13 year-old can be withholding, but he seems to be candid with Jack. Jack has exceeded our expectations on availability and flexibility as well, and always responds to calls and emails very timely.

I would highly recommend Jack to anyone looking for a tutor. He is patient and enjoyable to work with. The hour flies by very quickly with him because he is so engaging!
