This allows me to meet a student where they are at and gradually help them...

...Science in International Business with a minor in German at Butler University. Since my senior year of high school, I have been tutoring High School English and Writing.

This allows me to personally challenge and motivate students so they take ownership in their studies. Having struggled with a learning disability of my own, I know there is no single way to learn, and believe adapting teaching methods to fit the individual student is crucial.

Unfortunately, these people are the exception by far. Most of us do need guidance, and that is why people like me have a job. Again, in an ideal world, this would be where the teacher's role would end, but, as mentioned...

As someone who received tutoring in high school, I hope I can help students achieve their goals through positivity and support.
