...an obsession when I pursued as many English electives as I could in high school and, thereafter, a BA in English Honors at the University of British Columbia. Acceptance into my program of choice was no easy feat, nor could it have been predicted. At the beginning of my first year of university, I nearly failed my first two major essays.

I love to learn, I am drawn to travel, and the experiences I have had enrich my work as a tutor.
