I love students who don't like math!

After bouncing between various majors,... Read more

David
ESL/ESOL, Media Studies and Business Tutor
My love of teaching began when I started studying French as a teenager. My mother’s first language is French so I was motivated to learn a second language early on. Later, I began to study Spanish and fell in love with the language. I know firsthand what it is to study another language as a young person and as an adult. Studying other languages opened many doors for me. That is why I am happy to work with my students and help them work toward achieving their goals. I have a B.A. from... Read more
