I am a very flexible tutor. I love working with all grade levels and ages of individuals. I have appreciated watching students come to greater understanding and the insight that they can learn.

It has provided enormous validation that the one -to-one exchange of teaching and learning which exists between tutor and student is highly valid and does indeed work.

I had experience teaching the selected areas of teaching for a good number of years. I had also completed many courses in colleges and universities in these areas.
