As a business woman and a teacher, I recognize that the ability to learn, adapt and practice is not only essential but crucial.

"I’ve helped students ages 9 to 19 with various subjects and standardized tests; and seeing their progress never gets old!
I do my best to relate to/understand each student, because adaptation to the student’s abilities, learning style, etc. is instrumental to his or her success. I'm a firm believer that experience dictates attitude dictates performance, so I aim to make the learning experience productive and positive, allowing the rest to follow accordingly.

" Students also cannot help but compare themselves with their peers around them, and often become discouraged when they cannot seem to understand what so many people around them appear to grasp in an instant. This problem of student discouragement is a serious one, because learning starts with motivation; students will not be motivated to learn in an environment where they feel overwhelmed, scared, or unintelligent. That's where tutoring comes in. I've found that the best way for anyone to learn is by meeting with a teacher one-on-one." ...
