...small or problem too complicated that I cannot help with if not solve. I am exceptionally dedicated to my students; ensuring that they not simply memorize concepts or regurgitate facts but truly understand the material.

I honestly believe that anyone can learn anything given enough time and patience. I...

Both jobs were extremely fulfilling and being able to see tangible results, in the form of their test...
