By encouraging curiosity an instructor can turn learning from a chore to do, into a lifelong activity enjoyed by the student. As a person who takes personal pride in their work, I would strive to provide the highest quality assistance to your student. I would be diligent in providing the best information and tools to enable your student to succeed. Throughout my academic career, I have excelled in many subject areas.
