...as an editor for fellow students' essays for several years. When it comes to how I teach and my overall philosophy, I believe in a conversational approach; myself and the student work together to decipher what needs to be worked on, the best ways to tackle it, and the result of these practices. Education should be a judgement-free zone and as long as both parties are working together in harmony, any material can be learned...
