Dr. Derrick: Essex County tutor
Certified Tutor
"Each one, teach one" is a motto that I live by as an educator. It is my firm belief that all students can learn and grow if there is a determined educator leading the classroom. As an educator, it is my job to facilitate the discussions in class as well as a guide to how to think on a deeper level. Knowing how crucial critical thinking is in today's modern world, I challenge each student from the onset of class to broaden their horizons of thinking.
Students testify that after completing my class, there are no mountains too high for them to climb nor valley's low enough in their life that cannot be conquered. All students become more than academic conquerors. Their self-esteem soars and they have a meaning of accomplishment.
Education is my calling and I have answered with students that once felt as if math was an enemy, now view it as a weapon placed in their academic arsenal. By teaching students how to dig deeper into the ground of learning, each year I receive the greatest teacher appreciation gift; student learning. With my knowledge and passion for learning it would be my pleasure to partner with you to increase academic learning.
