...are unable to get a certain score. For me, I had to explore many different techniques from flashcards to rewriting notes, reciting notes out loud to teach myself, writing on a markerboard, color-coding key facts and ideas and so much more. Every student learns differently, and I actually struggled a lot in classes because, for me, I study better on my own through independent learning. I needed more time than others to grasp a concept,...

...encountered a lot of problems. But I came to learn, fortunately early, that the lack of an effective learning strategy is typically 80% of your problem. Getting to this strategy, however, is different for every individual-- it is not something you can simply google or watch a tutorial for. It takes time and effort. I put a high-emphasis in developing this strategy in my students, and love to watch them master it.

...paint and draw, and even had a pretty good conspiracy theory regarding Jack the Ripper. He encouraged me to read the books that he kept beside his chair in the living room, always asking me questions, always pushing me to really think about things the way they are instead of the way we are told they should be. I believe that everyone has the potential to really make themselves into something, however this is an...

I spend my downtime reading, playing the steelpan and cuddling with...
