Tailoring the material to the student will be an important way for him or her to, not only, understand...

Some of my earliest memories are of dragons. I owe much of who I am to the stories of my youth, when I found myself drawn to tales of legend and myth that stirred my heart and ignited my imagination. In time, my interests turned from the fantastical to that which is truly fantastic: stories of human loss and achievement rooted in fact, not folklore, that could surprise and inspire in ways no fiction ever...

...basic and intermediate reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills. My philosophy on tutoring is crafting the pace and structure of each lesson to the student's individual needs and talents.
