...finally received my bachelor's degree in electrical engineering in July of 2015. Math is the subject I am most comfortable tutoring. Math is fun for me because it's so concrete, the answers are right or wrong. I guess I mean to say it's an exact science. English is more of an art that is based on opinions in the eye of the beholder and that's why I don't like it as much as math. But...
