There is nothing...

...out without a lot of explanation. In most things, I'm not that guy! Like many students, understanding comes with repetition of principles and hard work.

Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the subjects I...

...grade. As I got into progressively harder subjects, especially when entering high school, I had to change in mindset of what it even means to BE a student.

...enjoy tutoring Economics because I enjoy the subject and a lot of times students just need to think about things a new way to understand it easily. My teaching philosophy is that the biggest key to learning is just getting in the right mindset.

...things. I seek to focus on the individual, their talents, abilities and desires, and help them to do this. I want people to realize the value of education for its own sake rather than simply being motivated by grades or test scores. Too often in education, potential goes untapped because it does not teach to individual's needs and is over-focused on results. One of the biggest problems is that when we are focused solely on...
