I see it as one of my jobs as a tutor to find an...

I have seen firsthand the wide range of pursuits, whether professional or personal, that can be achieved with the fundamental skills taught in school. My philosophy is to use this insight to help students understand how the skills they learn in school can be applied outside of school to develop their hobbies, pursue their passions, and help build the foundation for future...
