Mike
Certified Tutor
I am an open-minded, friendly, and logical individual with a solid and optimistic outlook on all things in life, in both my personal and professional aspects of life. I own an excellent ability to motivate others, coupled with the ability to communicate comfortably at all levels therefore ensuring an excellent relationship for all those that are involved in my life. My family and friends are important to me, as well as those that I relate with on a professional level. My goal is to continue building this understanding of others, by facilitating my self awareness abilities and empathic approach. Over my professional career, I have been fortunate to see and learn many things, both domestically and internationally; which has given me the opportunity to pass those learnings to other individuals, which is what brings me here as a tutor.

What is your teaching philosophy?
To understand first the student's "style of learning." Each individual has their unique way of obtaining information, whether visual or hands-on. This allows the connection to be established first, and that then provides the "bridge" for that knowledge transfer.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I would help a student define their optimal learning style, which they can then use to build and execute their personal learning roadmap.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
Motivation comes when the subject matter is and maintains its interest to the student; therefore, it's important to keep the learning "interesting."
