    Through my experience as a teacher and tutor, I understand the learning, reading and language barriers students generally experience. I have helped several schools and adult students to overcome most of their learning challenges. As a patient and knowledgeable tutor, I have empathy and recognition of learning barriers that can be overcome through consistent, varied and focused tutoring methods. The main aim as your tutor is to break learning barriers progressively. Where there are no learning challenges, my role as your tutor is to improve present academic achievements and to continuously stimulate your knowledge and skills.
