...on their experiences and voice their character in unique ways that truly stand out. My main strategy in helping students is not about finding the “right” answer to a prompt or essay question but finding ways for them to communicate their thoughts and ideas so they may truly be understood. I believe every student has strengths that can be used to complete their work while capitalizing upon their own interest, abilities, and goals. Every student...

I have now returned to the classroom as an elementary special education teacher but I have continued tutoring in my spare time because I just love working with students.

Through education, one can more deeply understand things he or she previously understood only superficially.

Although some subjects more practically fit into the needs of our modern world (e.g. science, business,...
