I enjoy working with young people in general but especially in academics. Helping with study skills is essential. There are times when a focus on learning styles is as important as the curriculum.

I strive to help others learn by presenting information in a new light, experimenting with different methods of learning, and tracing back difficulties to their roots.

Some people love lectures and taking their own notes, while other students need an element of play....
