I started working with a tutor and going from barely getting by to being successful in that class was a very fulfilling feeling that I hope to continue to pass on to others.... The best teachers are always trying to learn as well.... Get to...

I have done a lot of different jobs, but I've never found anything I like as much as helping students. I have a gift for explaining things in a way that anyone can easily understand. My students and I have fun but we get things done. I'm very easy to talk to, and I enjoy meeting new people, and discovering how I can help them!... First, I listen to the student to find out how I...

...my overall approach, I'm a big believer that meta-learning (the skill of learning how to learn) should be foundational to all education. A little knowledge about how your brain works and learns new things demystifies the learning process, which grows the student's confidence.
