Strong study skills are imperative for achieving and maintaining academic success. One of the most pervasive obstacles for many students is determining their individual learning styles. As a teacher, I am confident in finding what works for students of all learning styles, backgrounds, and levels of prior knowledge. I not only help students in overcoming specific obstacles, but by repetition and careful example, I also enable them to understand how to anticipate and surmount new roadblocks as they come into view. The areas I specialize in are Grammar, Writing and Mechanics, Vocabulary, Reading, and Literature.
