I have worked with students of all age levels and learning abilities including elementary, middle school/junior high, high school, college/university, graduate school, job candidates, working professionals, entrepreneurs, senior corporate executives, medical professionals, and retirees who want to improve their skills, learn new subjects, and expand their horizons.
