Bio
My ultimate goal as an educator is to inspire your student to develop a passion for learning and to provide him/her with the tools needed.
In order to be great at helping others, one has to have the following personal traits: Empathy, patience, knowledge of subject areas being taught/tutored, and solid teaching/tutoring and communication skills in order to get the message across.
