...can. Different students learn in different ways but that kind of personal attention is difficult to provide in a classroom. With one on one tutoring sessions, any student can excel, even in the subjects he or she has the most trouble in.

...in school and whatever their future may bring. My style of teaching can be defined as that I am in fact, "...not a teacher, but an awakener", as said by Robert Frost. I believe in locating each student's personal strengths, learning style, and interests to help them see that they can be successful past our tutoring sessions. I hope to have the chance to help every student "awaken" their academic determination and strength to accomplish...
