My comments on tutoring Speaking : I am an excellent public speaker because I have an enormous amount of experience and most importantly in public speaking, an endless amount of confidence. Serving as a USC Student Senator, as a member of my high school's student council, and as the President and Vice President of my youth group has provided me countless hours to give speeches and speak publicly, because practice is a priceless commodity. In terms of public speaking itself, one must speak calmly and clearly, keep their body language neutral and not threatening or challenging (unless this is intended.) Also, one must speak intelligently, continuously making valid and logical points so that the point of their speaking is understood and their speech is not wasted or given in vain. For me, public speaking was initially extremely intimidating and scary. I would stand up, and without exception, lock up, begin shaking slightly, and become unable to speak a single word. With the help of those older than me and those who were comfortable speaking in front of crowds of one hundred or three, I was able to learn how to speak like them. Also, and maybe most importantly, they of course practiced with me privately, but also forced me to speak in front of those large groups that I mentioned in the beginning of this passage. Ironically enough, if it wasn't for them, I would never have been able to be a teacher and later a tutor.

This company is so successful and growing so fast because of the unparalleled improvements among students that it recently appeared on ABC's show "Shark Tank," during which Mark Cuban was impressed enough to buy a substantial stake in the company and is a current partner.
