About
Greetings! My name is Rohan, and I'm an online tutor here! I love guiding students and mentoring audiences on how to be a more successful individual in the realm of academia. With my professional work... experience and subject matter expertise covering my passions in criminal justice, political science, history, and English writing, I believe I can be a great asset to your educational growth!
What I love most about tutoring is the aspect of leadership. Leadership drives my everyday goals and ambitions, and I often do my best work as a mentor showing others how to do things every day. It makes me feel better when I know that someone has benefitted from my guidance! My philosophy is: "Work hard, play hard!"
I believe in success by any means necessary. No matter how challenging life gets for students at any academic level, it is always important to be fully educated and knowledgable about our world so that we can leave a lasting footprint academically, as well as professionally.read more
