I am an American-born native English speaker who has lived in Kuwait for over 20 years. My focus as a personal tutor is to get my students to a level where they are confident enough to find the answers for themselves. Students need encouragement, validation and the courage to be independent thinkers. I will assist them through the learning process and help them with any lessons or homework they need to complete and/or create catered and customized lessons for them depending on their needs.

I will work with my students to achieve the goals they desire while also creating goals with them for successful learning. I will move at the pace that is necessary for the student and will change the pace of learning as they progress through their benchmarks. I am willing to be flexible with timings and locations as long as there is enough notice beforehand. I am excited at the opportunity to work with students on a one-to-one basis and give the proper amount of attention needed for each achiever. If you believe my style of teaching is what you are looking for, I am happy to discuss your needs further.
