Why I Started Catalyst Tutoring
Growing up, I was lucky to have a cousin who prepared me for the upcoming school year. That time was incredibly valuable, not just spending time with my fabulous cousin, but building confidence in new subjects and preparing myself for the year ahead. I experienced the impact that readiness has on academics and that is my motivation for starting Catalyst Tutoring.
My simple goal is to offer that same advantage to other students. I’ve recently taken many of these classes, so I understand common challenges and can break down difficult concepts in a relatable way. My sessions are engaging, interactive, and tailored to each student’s needs. I look forward to working with you and helping each student feel more confident and organized.
