Holley: Yorkville tutor

Certified Tutor

I know that getting to know a stranger online can be awkward! Don't worry! I have never met a person that I could not hold a conversation with. I have a very flexible teaching style and want my students to look forward to my classes. I encourage questions, topic suggestions, and good conversation. My goal is to make sure that you always leave class feeling awesome about learning something new.
