...when my friend finally connected the dots between the concepts and gained a sense of confidence at the end. I had to use all sorts of methods: drawing cartoons, wildly gesturing (even though we were in a library) and coming up with all sorts of analogies.

I try to encourage the students I tutor to ask "why?" and give them the confidence to undertake their own independent research.

I struggled throughout high school until finally preparing for the SAT and ACT, so I'm adept with picking up just what you're struggling with - I was there once, too. Now having performed in the upper 10% of all standardized exams I have taken and graduated with high honors with all my degrees,...

I also received a Master of...
