...managed to become a top student all throughout my life. This was due to self-awareness, learning from others, and hyperfocusing on things that interested me and reading all about them. I'm a great teacher because for the most part, I taught myself much of the way, and I'm a tough client.

...graduate teaching assistant and three semesters teaching the Western Civilization 102 survey course. As an instructor I focus not only on the "what" but also on the "why and how."

...my students is immense. A teacher has the power to make or break a child's mind and soul My choice is always to create.

I love working with students on a one-on-one basis, and use a warm, humorous approach to put students at ease and take the pressure off them so that they can learn without feeling stressed.

...It is not just dates in a dusty history book. History has things to teach us, if we would only listen. The "behind the scenes" issues that caused a certain situation to occur are not usually just black & white. When your parents or grandparents talk about what it was like growing up for them, that is history. When you watch the evening news, that is history in the making. Hold on tight and take...

I am currently a college student studying nursing. I have tutored students since 8th grade and I am thrilled to be able to help students who, like me, sometimes don't understand all the complicated stuff school throws at you! It doesn't annoy me at all if you don't get it the first (or second, or third) time because then we are challenged to find new ways of understanding the subject and, yes, I think that...

Alongside my History degree, which allows me to understand the evolution of addiction and...
