My tutoring strategy involves helping students realize their own way of understanding and using language. I strive to encourage learners to create their own proper ways of interpreting and expressi... Read more

Aaron
Writing, English Grammar, Biblical Studies, Bicycle Maintenance

This has led me to write a book, pursue certificates in creative writing, and to become as ferocious of a reader as I am able. After all, the best writers were even better readers! With a B.A. in Biblical Studies I learned not only how to be familiar with the Christian Bible, but how to assess and look at it exegetically; to explore its nuances and hidden gems with regard to it's fascinating and diverse...
