I am a hard working, dedicated university student willing to help and guide other students through their studies. My main goal is for students I tutor to reach their full potential and be successful in their studies.

Not only do I help others but I also show them how to assist themselves for future encounters. I am quite sociable, enjoy sports and am very much in touch with what is happening around me thus, I am also able to assist others on how to balance their social life as well as academics.
