There's a certain kind of satisfaction that comes with teaching. Seeing someone get that "a-ha!" moment makes the process worthwhile...and it's addicting. I remember being a student taking a GRE prep course and frequently experiencing the "a-ha!" moment as a student. I knew then that giving that feeling was worth pursuing. Getting a good score on my GRE because of that training only solidified that sentiment.

I believe everyone is best when challenged, though there is no simple way to do so. Everyone is their own riddle, with their own secret combination that will spring the lock into their psyche. I love to put that puzzle together to unlock greatness.

Follow your passion - these words were spoken to me years ago by my high school English teacher. Looking back, I wish I had the enthusiasm then as a student that he had as a teacher. This is my way of paying it forward. Hopefully my passion for learning will be transmitted in the way I help those who seek it.
