I love to help others to get ahead in life. I am a recent college graduate, so I can communicate effectively with younger students. While in school I worked full time and went to school full time, this has taught me how to use time management skills effectively. I have eight years of military leadership experience and I am currently employed by Wells Fargo. Every student is different. It is up the instructor to identify these differences then tailor their teaching styles to what best helps the student. I believe that patience is the key and using positive reinforcement to create a positive learning atmosphere is the key to success.
