Going the Extra Mile
Meet Your Tutor, Carol
My desire to teach began when I was in the 1st grade and I always came back to my first love. The English language is my passion—its quirks, its messiness, and its beauty. Joy comes from helping students acquire the skills that will allow them to improve their reading and writing abilities.
