I want to be a tutor so I can teach young minds to be successful in any subject of academia they are struggling in and be happy that they are succeeding. I've had experience in tutoring through helping my fellow classmates throughout my public schooling and college days in subjects of math, geography, American history, anatomy and Exercise Physiology and well as exercise protocols (the correct ways to stretch, lift weights, etc).

Hobbies
I'm very motivated to tutor students in a way that enganges them in the subjects that they are having difficulty with. I believe that each individual student has the ability to excel in all subjects as long as they have the right tools and right teacher/tutor to help them along the way. I look forward to helping all students out with their areas that they struggle in and can't wait to start making differences in young academics study habits that results in them achieving in the classroom.
