About Me

I spent five years in the Marine Corps as a Pashto Cryptologic Linguist. I attended the Defense Language Institute for two years to learn Pashto, an Afghan language. After I gained a certain degree of fluency in that language, I began tutoring other Marines, an experience which I deeply enjoyed. I'm a great tutor because I understand that everyone has difficulty with a few subjects, but through patience and dedicated effort those difficulties can be surmounted. In the past, some courses have been difficult for me. However, I think that occasionally struggling with a particular subject can make a person really dig in and truly learn the material. I want to help students who are looking for tutoring because I've been where they are - I've wanted someone that could explain concepts simply, in plain English, with no condescension. That's the kind of tutor I strive to be, and I hope by being that tutor I can help you. In my free time I love reading military memoirs and studying foreign languages.
