...of mine ever since I can remember and I have acted upon that passion as a tutor as early as my days in high school.

...finding ways to keep the material interesting.

In my spare time, I love to play and watch rugby, basketball, football and other sports. I also like to paint, but given the choice, I would prefer to be outdoors doing something active like hiking, rock climbing, or camping.

While having come far, I've certainly struggled and I honestly believe that struggle is what makes me the perfect tutor.
