I started tutoring because I knew I was more fortunate than others and wanted to give back to my community. By volunteering with United Tutoring, I can make change [for the better] in childrens' lives. Education is crucial to me and in my opinion, it will get you far in life. To make a difference in kids' lives means the world to me!
