Hobbies

I am enthusiastic, energetic and a great communicator - online or in-person. My background is in social work and education, two areas that require hard work and persistence. I believe every single person on the planet can do at least one thing extremely well. So I start by focusing on someone's strengths and build learning/writing skills from there. I love a challenge. Bring it on! You will find me to be knowledgeable, detail-oriented, organized and approachable. I have a strong work ethic and expect the same of others. I show up to tutoring sessions prepared - you should too.
