"My love for tutoring comes from my love of learning. Growing up with a mother who is a teacher instilled the importance of education in me from a young age. It also allowed me to build the study skills and discipline that allowed me to graduate summa cum laude and phi beta kappa from the honors program of my undergraduate institution.
