...because I was able to communicate difficult concepts in easy-to-undertand manners. My teaching philosophy is to guide and show, not tell, students how to complete complex problems and assignments. This includes going through multiple examples to make theoretical concepts concrete and asking questions that aid the student in fully understanding concepts, so they are able to solve new problems on their own. I am looking forward to working with people to better understand difficult subjects....

...grammar, reading- at whatever pace was right for each day. I saw many students make large strides in difficult classes and I had many very grateful customers. However the "Slow and Steady" motto is not always easy to sell in the high-stakes world of Test Prep. That's why I founded my own company. Tutoring works best when you start with plenty of time before your test, when you practice multiple times a week, and when...

...get along with most people I meet and I enjoy helping others out. I feel that knowing a subject and knowing how to teach said subject can be quite different.

Learning is an ongoing process. As a tutor it is my goal to help take information and make it "real" for the learner. In this way theory becomes practical information that can help one grow.
