GRE Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Sarasota, FL

I believe that all students can and will achieve academic success given appropriate instruction; i.e., instruction that is differentiated according to students' specific needs, learning styles, interests, and personal goals.

If I helped to change the child's mind about learning, I have literally altered the course of his/her life in a positive way.
