I work with students to recognize errors, and to help students be able to answer questions by...

In my time as a professional tutor, I have helped more than 200 students prepare for the SAT, ACT, and all...

...a teacher to take the time and effort with a student towards detailed learning can only, in time, prove beneficial in the grander understanding of a given topic. Every student (everyone, truly, for are we not all students?), in varying degrees of severity, learns differently, takes in the world around them differently, and manifests that information differently. No one teaching method could ever account for the infinite variable of personality and general humanness; hence the...

...from over 9 years of tutoring and from doing my own work in earning my master's degree.
