My teaching philosophy is that superior performance is something that can be achieved by each and every student with proper mentoring.

Whether it is in athletics or academics, we...

Michael ...in 2010, I have been working as a tutor for the Plano Independent School District. I received extensive training in tutoring both ACT and SAT test strategies. While I have been trained to tutor all core subjects, tutoring Mathematics has always brought me the greatest joy in life.

Joshua ...Pashto, an Afghan language. After I gained a certain degree of fluency in that language, I began tutoring other Marines, an experience which I deeply enjoyed. I'm a great tutor because I understand that everyone has difficulty with a few subjects, but through patience and dedicated effort those difficulties can be surmounted. In the past, some courses have been difficult for me. However, I think that occasionally struggling with a particular subject can make a...

Meredith ...summer session in the South-of-France and a semester in Paris. In law school, I spent a summer studying International and Comparative Law at Trinity University in Dublin, Ireland. Perhaps the most rewarding experience of all was being able to spend my final semester of law school as an exchange student at the University of Hong Kong, China. The chance to learn and study with students and faculty of diverse nationalities and cultures has been both...
