About Me

I've tutored extensively in individual and group settings. While in college, I worked for a local high school tutoring groups of students through the AVID system. At the same time, I also tutored an individual who was failing four out of his five core classes. In three classes he had less than a 40%, and was in danger of dropping out of school. After four weeks of tutoring, he was passing all his classes. He graduated on time the following year and now attends community college. I'm a great tutor because I have a comprehensive understanding of all subjects, and a extensive understanding of English and literature. I scored fives on my English Language and Literature AP exams, and have only continued my English abilities by studying English in college. I also communicate well and can explain material in a way students can understand. More than just teaching material, I encourage and build confidence in students who feel insecure and unable to learn because of past failures in their school work.
