...of having them astound their teachers at real school by how proficient they had become. It drove them insane, though I like to think I helped at least one some occasions; otherwise, why would I continue to be the one, out of the four of us, that to this day is asked to double-check papers, to explain a formula, to clarify a concept. Even though I've decided to ultimately pursue a career in medicine, teaching...

I wanted to reach out and help more students to achieve their academic goals.
