I know first-hand how demoralizing making sub-par grades can be, but also the triumph of learning how to redirect focus and learning strategies while rebuilding confidence. I love to teach just as much as I love to learn. I truly believe where there's a will, there's a way, and hopefully an "A"! If you really want to understand the "why" and not just the "what will...

...myself. These methods relied upon the fact that, oftentimes, students already possess the foundational knowledge to arrive at correct conclusions--they simply lack the confidence and/or the roadmaps to get there. That's where I come in.

...like they are working with a tutor, but with another student in a study session. While it is important to come to a teacher/tutor for help if one has questions, it is even more important to get to the point of figuring problems out in your own way.

Education has opened up so many doors for me, and this is largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable).

Individualization is key....
