How working with Benedictine Tutors ultimately benefitted Ethan Onianwa
“After beginning tutoring sessions, I realized I was more willing and felt comfortable asking questions. Going to tutoring was really helpful in getting me to open up. I become more outspoken in the classroom and found it easier to vocalize my concerns. This helped to build my self-confidence both in the classroom and on the field. My teachers soon noticed how serious I was about doing well in my classes.”

Ethan did very well overall in his PreAlgebra, Algebra I & II, Geometry, and PreCalculus classes. Ethan also saw substantial improvements in Biology & Chemistry.
When asked, “What was your best memory at Benedictine Tutors”, this is how Ethan responded…
