I was a non-interested student in high school. In college I turned everything around and ended up with a Masters Degree in which I achieved a GPA of 3.59. I am living proof of two educational truths: 1) having motivation in school almost guarantees success, and 2) taking your learning in to your own hands, in other words being "responsible" for your own learning, can virtually guarantee success. I bring an excellent educational and experiental background into my tutoring and coaching, including six years working at the World Bank Group in Washington, three years in the entrepreneurial field, and 2 years coaching. I believe that tests are important and learning to pass them is key, and just as important is learning subjects for one's own edification and sense of lifelong learning.
