In my own experience though, even students who perform well on the final test struggle during the process.

My approach to tutoring centers...

Life long learning is a hoot! Even with what I have accomplished, I'm not through yet. Curiosity has me constantly looking for things I don't know and mastering them.

...see it as the fantastic unfolding of human events that it is represents one of my favorite experiences as a teacher. As a teacher, I've learned that every student can learn given the right circumstances. As a tutor and teacher, it's my job to work with the student to figure out how they learn so that I know how to teach them. Education is never a one-size-fits-all endeavor! When I'm not teaching or working towards...

...and British literature courses. I have experience teaching students with varying proficiency levels, including some whose first language isn't English. I believe in meeting students where they are at in order to help them develop and refine their writing, editing, and reading comprehension skills.

I especially enjoy helping students with the early stages of non-L1 language acquisition (in either...
