As a recent Harvard grad living in New Orleans, I am excited to help others excel as they take every opportunity they can to learn. I tutored and TA'ed classes throughout college, while also studying computer science. That experience taught me that all subjects are tricky, and even the best students sometimes struggle. A good teacher and a helpful explanation can go a long way in rekindling the love of a difficult subject.
