I started tutoring in college and have been doing it for about eight years now. I enjoy it because I love to help others learn and expand their understanding of the world. I thoroughly enjoy the "ah-ha" moments that my students have. Interests I enjoy hiking, kayaking, and spending time with my family and friends. Ideal Study Location I prefer to tutor in a quiet place so that my students can focus on what they are learning.
