I believe that everyone can learn and master any subject as they work on learning and absorbing it through developing their perspective on the subject and connecting it to their personal history and knowledge of the world. The ability to learn resides in all of us, and sometimes we just need guidance to help us make the connections we are searching for with the material.

I take advantage of it and the opportunity to become better than I was the day before.

Some of my subjects...

...am a native Korean speaker, and because being Korean-American has always been such a huge part of my identity, I'm excited for the opportunity to tutor students who are interested in learning the language of my country.
