James

Certified Tutor

Throughout my undergraduate college career, I have found a passion in tutoring and teaching. Imparting knowledge, as well as guiding individuals in the right direction with regards to achieving their academic goals are two things that make me happy. I have had the experience of teaching and tutoring children from the age of 4 years old to the age of 17 years old in both the United States and China; such a wide range of age and culture has allowed me to develop an adaptive approach to tutoring individuals. My strength, with regards to tutoring for the varsity program would be in the International Baccalaureate subjects, because of the fact that I have gone through the program myself and have also received the diploma. In addition to that, my education includes a BA in International Relations, a minor in East Asian Studies, a second minor in Hospitality Management, and a certificate in Chinese Studies.

As a seasoned, adaptable, and patient tutor I strive to work together with my students, in order to help them achieve the best learning experience possible. I hope to serve as an effective guide on the path that is their academic learning process; should they encounter any obstacles or bumps, I will be there to help them effectively get past them. My student's success is my success.
