Bio
I am a dedicated tutor with 3 years of English tutoring experience. I believe that empathy and support are fundamental to unlocking a student's full potential and achieving the best results.
I see students as individuals and not just a student in general. I make sure to attend to each student's specific needs by understanding them uniquely. I believe that effective assistance stems from building a comfortable connection and adapting interactions and teaching methods accordingly, a skill I excel at.
