I'm especially excited when you feel like you are learning and improving. Learning is all about having fun! I don't just drill skills, but I like to provide activities and games for retention. I tutor a seond-grader from Vietnam. We learn from each other. It brings me joy that he looks forward to me coming. He never knows what I will bring or what game/activity we will do.

I value patience and kindness in my approach. I believe students need to be nurtured to the fullest extent possible. I enjoy getting to know students. Each child is unique and has a different person personality. That's what I enjoy most.

"Impact, not Noise." That's the tagline on my website (edburkestrategiccommunications). I teach students (ranging from disadvantaged kids to Wall Street lawyers) how to get their message across in a way that's likely to move their readers/listeners to share their views and act in a way they desire. I teach them to clarify their own agenda, determine their audience/readers' agendas and link the two. In clear, concise, compelling prose. Most people just talk and write to themelves. My students focus on moving the meter. I've been in communications for more than 30 years and in various forms of teaching, training and coaching for 20 years
