I am a rising Sophomore at the University of Alabama with 1. 5 years experience tutoring. I tutor the ACT (upon which I received a 35), math (up to algebra 1), and English language.
I am passionate about encouraging others to be their best. Tutoring allows for me to encourage in a setting that limits anxiety and distractions; most times, students shine when they feel less pressure and are motivated beyond the norm.
