"I've lived and worked overseas for over 10 years in Thailand, Hong Kong and London.
At each stop along the way I've been privileged to be known as a reliable resource for those needing assistance with their English. Native speakers and ESL students alike.
My approach is simple: I move at your pace until I'm confient you understand the material. Then a gentle push to the next level is applied. Using previous sessions as a foundation I focus on the fundamentals."

"Each experience improved and broadened my educational skill.
Each experience has also deepened my commitment to teaching and tutoring in the natural sciences. I love the depth and complexity of science, but I refuse to let that complexity make the subject inaccessible. In fact, I've found that with the right approach my students can become capable and enthusiastic in science.
My students also benefit from my many experiences in the field and lab."

" I worked as a private mentor with an eleven year old student for my last semester at Binghamton which has furthered my experience in one on one tutoring, and I have come to see myself as an outstanding role model to younger students.
