Josh: Sunnyvale English Grammar and Syntax tutor
Certified English Grammar and Syntax Tutor in Sunnyvale, CA
My favorite word is "why." And why is that, you may ask? Well, I am subject to a never-ending flow of knowledge because I perpetually wonder why. The search for answers to any question beginning with "why" has taught me everything I know -- and put me in a position to disseminate my knowledge to other people. Tutoring is the best possible way for me to do that.
