...dean of the law school at the University of Washington in St. Louis. My approach to tutoring is to meet students where they are whenever possible. Whereas one-on-one settings permit individualized lesson plans tailored to students' strengths, weaknesses, and learning preferences, classroom settings often require a more standardized approach. Regardless of setting, I emphasize positive reinforcement from the onset, with the belief that confidence from initial gains provides the foundation for exponential growth thereafter.

I work with students to match their learning style (visual, auditory, learning by doing, etc.).
