It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results???. That being said, I look forward to the opportunity that will present itself through this company for me to contribute my own little quota. As a tutor, I understand that not every student is the same thus...

...environment that is safe and diverse. My tutees know they are safe physically and mentally; they are able to speak their minds and know their opinions count. The more diverse I am with teaching styles, the better my equipped I am to help different tutees learn. Using visual, auditory, and hands-on learning styles is something I believe to be a key component in the best learning environment. I have been tutoring for eight years. I...

As a master's student and former medical student, I know how challenging academics can be. I also know how having a helping hand, a guidance through the confusion, can help one gain confidence in themselves to excel. From tutoring children to post-graduates, I have seen that all students (no matter their age, level of education, strengths, weaknesses, etc.) who are willing to learn can succeed. ... In a typical first session, the student and I usually...
