Learning is More Than Memorizing
I take a no-nonsense-type approach to going through the curriculum, however I strive to make the material accessible and exciting for each person that I work with. I am a big believer in engaging with the specific lesson in a way that shows how it connects to the larger subject at hand.

Simply memorizing facts and formulas does not facilitate the growth of critical thinking that is so crucial to true learn... Read more

English and reading made easy
When I tutor a student, I begin by learning what the student already knows. How does he feel about the subject and why.

Professional photographer with CEO pedigree
I spent my corporate life on the sales and marketing side of a public real estate development company where the path to promotion was to plan for succession. In other words, in order to move up the ladder you first had to replace yourself. Which is what I did for nearly 20 years until I left the company as its Chief Sales and Marketing Officer and member of the Board Of Directors. Along the way I developed a passion for teaching others not only what I knew but how to bring out the best in the... Read more
