I would have had a hard time in school but I was fortunate to have smart parents who had the time to help me understand what I was learning. This help brought me to the top of my classes throughout my time in school. I know how important it is that students deeply understand what they're learning in order to truly value education so I want to share my skills and knowledge with students who need extra help.
