We worked together for some time, but some of his characteristics were not compatible with my liking.

To have a mentor that is invested in your success is a fantastic feeling. Suddenly, my motivation...

...in my head) and can tutor in all the sciences. I have taken multiple AP tests recently during high school. I can aid not only in the content of these tests, but also test taking strategies and tricks that have helped me get high scores on AP tests. Additionally, I can tutor you for the ACT.

I love working with students to help them grasp new concepts. Most crucially though, I like to...

...algebra, and in test prep skills. My ultimate desire is not only to help students understand subjects that they may be struggling with, but to help them cultivate a interest in and passion for the material itself. Understanding and ability in a subject is great, but a true desire for knowledge outside of the classwork itself creates a student driven by curiosity and interest instead of just wanting to pass the class.

I am confident that my years of academic experience will serve...
