I use all the resources I have available and do everything I can...

With a background in cognition based studies, I'd personally be obliged to teach you or your child what I know!

What is this 'back-seat' approach? The back seat approach is a method of going through material but rather than...

In 2007 I taught a GRE...

...instances because, let's face it, no one wants to learn something that they think they'll never use again or something that won't help them in life. Using the client's interest and conveying it in the problem yields better results makes learning fun. Outside of tutoring, I'm a culture freak.
