I enjoyed being able to work with others and see their progress and improvement. I find that it is such a beneficial and rewarding experience to be able to help others better understand and improve their business and writing skills. Being a tutor has been one of the best experiences and opportunities I've had because I like knowing that I am able to provide a student with one on one attention that will allow them to better themselves and their work.

I am a very friendly, outgoing, and laid back person. I am dedicated, determined, patient, and hardworking. I enjoy being around people, making new friends, and helping others whenever and with whatever I can.
