Certified Tutor

Thank you for considering me for your tutoring needs. My professional life has been dedicated to helping young people reach their full potential as a classroom teacher, personal tutor, and coach. Of one thing I am convinced, ALL students have the capacity to learn...the trick is in finding the process by which that learning is accepted and able to be utilized by the student when needed. Kindest regards, Scott Colvin
