One thing I've learned in my years as a student is that very few people learn material in the same way or at the same pace. This is why I love tutoring! A student must be given the tools they need to learn in whichever way is most beneficial for them.

Being a university student myself, I know more than others about the occasional tough classes that every student comes by. The classes I have signed up to tutor in are classes that I have taken both the Advanced Placement classes as well as the college version as well, so I know a thing or two about what you should really know. I'll make sure you receive tutoring that is effective and tutoring that is efficient!

How do you learn best? What is your learning style? How can I best help you learn more effectively? These are the questions that guide me when I sit down to help a new student. A mentor once told me that there are no learning disabled students, there are only teaching disabled instructors. I am always looking for new approaches to benefit every student better.

As a college graduate, I look forward to enhance the learning experience of students through tutoring. Academic success and excellence are goals that should be supported, and together we can achieve them, one step at a time.
