Career Experience

Having worked with students since I was in high school myself, I have quite the background in helping people understand concepts they may need help in. I have taken on the role of a tutor, a teaching assistant, and other titles that further education beyond traditional classroom learning, all of which in the effort of bettering education.

I Love Tutoring Because

there will always be a subject that may not come to us as easily as it does to others. It may be due to the method in which information is delivered or the need of just a bit more clarity. Regardless of the reason, helping people understand topics is something that betters everyone in the long run.

Tommy was incredible, he helped me so much within the parameters of his services. He also helped guide me to a section within the tutoring services that may be able to help me further.

They were greatly helpful! I was a little bad at explaining the assignment and they were incredibly patient with that, in the end they did actually help me in a substantial way that might improve my assignment greatly!
