My skills as a tutor revolve around my ability to instill confidence in my students. I will help you develop intellectual poise so that you will become a better writer, speaker--and most importantly--a more proficient thinker. My background in Philosophy has been incredibly helpful in making me an effective tutor: more than anything else, it enables me to understand the distinction between higher-, middle-, and lower-order concerns in your communication, so that I can help you zero-in on your problem areas and make the appropriate alterations.
Above all, I want to help you identify your talents in communication and show you how to use those talents more-fully in your work.
