Michael-Skye R - Tutor in Pine Park

I am an IT Support Technician and have been in the IT field for 5+ years. I have mostly worked on the Help Desk or been outsourced to work for companies on-site. I have always enjoyed teaching others and have excellent communication skills, a detailed understanding of computers, immense patience and I am able to provide solutions to technical quiries in an efficient manner. I believe those personality traits and work experience can apply to teaching too and would like to give it a try.
