WHAT MAKES HIM AN AWESOME TUTOR

My resilience :) When it comes to learning and teaching new material, I strive for that complete understanding that presents itself as the “light bulb” that goes off as the dots start to connect. As a tutor it’s my number one priority to help my students have that light bulb moment. Since there’s more than one way to wrapping your head around new ideas, you can bet that I will explore every avenue until it clicks! And in the meantime, I’ll be encouraging students throughout the entire learning process with my witty humour and positive attitude.

FUN FACTS

Words to Live By: “Failure is okay, persistence is key. You will win eventually.”
