Languages, writing and the arts require you to engage fully with their subjects - to produce something unique, something that only you can offer. This, to me, is true learning.

Through the use of different teaching styles and learning strategies that motivate, all learners have the opportunity to excel in areas of education. Forward-thinking styles and adaptability will challenge all students to achieve their learning goals and make the most of each tutoring class.

...a current senior at Syracuse University, and I am set to graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Neuroscience in May 2018. Being a university student has taught me that some of the most effective learning is done outside of the classroom. One on one or even tutoring in smaller groups gives the students more chances to ask questions they may not want to ask in the classroom. Tutoring is a great way...

I can't wait to work with you as well and...
