I firmly believe in the interconnectedness of everything, and find that in understanding the past, and how writers chose to express their reality, we gain invaluable understanding of our self and our modern world.

...had in my sessions. Despite the wide breadth of subjects and ages that I have tutored, one thing always remains the same in these tutoring sessions: Each session is tailored to the individual needs, questions, and struggles of the student I am working with and each session gets the student closer to achieving their academic and personal goals.
