Christina
Instructor
I began tutoring in college when I started helping local high school students with algebra and physics. Since then, I have worked with students from preschool though college level in reading, writing, math, and study skills, but tutoring math is my favorite. I believe that anyone can learn anything if given the right tools and motivations.
When I am not working, I like to read, obsess over my favorite TV shows, make home improvements, and I am trying to teach myself how to cook and play the bagpipes (not simultaneously).
