I heard someone say that everyone starts out liking math. But they meet that one math teacher or class or even a problem that intimidates them, possibly embarrasses them. And they build a wall and find it hard to continue liking math. I want to show them an easier way to understand the concepts; I want people to like math.

Linda: Suffolk HSPT tutor
Certified HSPT Tutor in Suffolk, VA
As an English teacher, creating a sense of excitement in reading and writing is what I wanted students to always strive for in their academic lives. Literature and composition played an essential role in my life, and I hope students will feel the same as they explore their imagination and curiosity. When a student tells me they just read ".........." and loved it, I feel inspired by them and encourage them to continue learning forever.
