...academic interests range from medieval Scholasticism to contemporary issues in bioethics and law. I believe that tutoring is not only about the transfer of knowledge between the tutor and the student, but also a transfer of skills, which would help the student learn how to find the answer himself or herself and to solve whatever academic problems come his or her way. Equally, important is demonstrating the real-world application of what a student is doing.
