...to help students understand material and become more successful in their educational paths. Having been both homeschooled and a student at school, I have a unique philosophy on education. I believe that learning material at your own pace skimming over the information you know well and spending more time on what you find difficult is crucial.

There are different kinds of vehicles, but they can all lead to the same path despite differences in speed and engines. I want to emphasize that despite these differences, everybody is capable. I am here to navigate, but ultimately, the student is the driver. You are the...
