To be honest, I struggled in grade school and high school. Teachers gave up on me; I fell between the cracks and was passed year after year. In my senior year in high school, an English teacher and a school psychologist gave me attention and my C and D grades went to A's and B's. I made the Honor Roll for the first time ever! I started enjoying school for the very first time! Sadly, my delayed interest in learning would prevent me from going to college at that point in time. I went straight t... Read more

Hi, my name is Jason and I'm excited to help you learn! As someone who is always curious and learning new things, I think an important aspect of learning is asking questions, including asking "Why?" I think it is particularly important to see the connections between different ideas and different subjects, and to make these connections relevant to the person learning. In high school my favorite subjects were English/Creative Writing, Psychology, and Film Analysis/Production. At the University ... Read more
