I am not a Teacher, but an Awakener

I am not a Teacher, but an Awakener I am not a teacher, but an awakener. -Robert Frost (1874-1963) These words belong to the great American poet Robert Lee Frost. He is highly regarded for his realistic depictions of rural life and his command of American colloquial speech. Frost was honored frequently during his lifetime, receiving four Pulitzer Prizes for Poetry. He was awarded the  Congressional Gold Medal in 1960 for his poetical works. On July 22, 1961, Frost was named Poet laureate of Vermont. Inspired by his mothers innovative ideas about education, and to augment his meager income as a poet, Robert Frost turned to teaching. During Frost’s nearly 50 years of teaching, he was able to influence his students because his approach focused on developing their ability to think critically and generate their own ideas.  Robert strove to be the type of teacher that gives you a little prod behind and you jump to the skies. Our tutors have the same  approach in teaching their own students as  Robert Frost. They developed their  unique tutoring styles. Each one is equipped with a range of interesting and effective tutoring techniques  that will help you succeed in your classes and reach your goals.
