As a tutor, I love both teaching and learning. I've worked as a private tutor for almost four years, and there's nothing I love more than helping a student understand how the world works. It's why I've worked as a tutor so long; it's why I helped co-found IVC EAC, an organization dedicated to educating students about career choices and how best to make a significant positive impact on the world; and it's why I hope to continue doing both in the future.
