Teacher expertise and credentials
I have spent the past 15 years working with students of all ages in a variety of capacities. I was a lead tutor with a national company before venturing on my own; I worked on a teaching certification, as well as studied to be an actuary. However, I enjoy working with students and helping them learn any and all subjects.
