About John

Experience: 3 yrs

I grew up in Richmond/Charlestown. I am a former journalist and U. S. government employee. I can help with editing and writing and even explain how the financial system works. I am patient and a problem solver. I have a BA in English and a Masters in journalism. I like helping people learn, think and solve problems. I am a husband and father of three kids. I'd describe my personality as patient, curious, friendly. I like tutoring because I like helping people grow to become problem-solvers. I'm looking for a job that helps people be confident and self-reliant. At home, I help my kids with schoolwork. I started reading to them when they were infants. My teen daughter is an IB program, so I have been tutoring for more than a decade. In my spare time, I like to read, cook, go to the gym, watch my kids play sports. One thing you should know about me is that I was adopted from S. Korea, raised in RI, speak Italian and Spanish. My skills include writing, editing, life coaching.
