Graduate Tutorials

These tutorials were mostly one on one, though a number of tutorials would have 2 or three

students. Students seek me out for tutorials, perhaps because they hear about the method I use -

the monthly walk and discourse in the Gatineau hills, where we become one another’s mentors as

each student provides a progress report on their current work.
