Q&A with Thomas

When I teach writing or SAT preparation, I like to tap into my student's passions and interests so that they care about their work and learn better. I myself am an avid reader and writer, and I like to share that enthusiasm with others. I look at learning as problem-solving where the learner finds their own solutions with a little help and guidance from the teacher.
