My Passion & How I Inspire

I have found that tuition in a subject is usually sought because the student is looking for experience and learning outside that given by the school curriculum. As such, under my guidance I encourage students to pursue avenues of inquiry that relate to their curriculum but expand upon the subject matter. Particularly with my younger students, structuring the classes around topics that they were interested in resulted in a much better retention of the knowledge following the class, and a reported marked improvement in the student’s performance in their school work. I hope to inspire in my students a real passion for the subjects I teach and the tools to be able to explore it further in their future academic careers.
