Bio
I am a compassionate and friendly advocate for lifelong learning. I believe in leading with understanding and teaching with creativity.
I have been dedicated to tutoring and sharing my experience for several years. I enjoy connecting with others, and especially cherish the feeling of seeing someone understand something that they did not previously. I enjoy helping people, and therefore I put effort into it.
