Through Tufts, I taught English as a second language (3 semesters) and citizenship exam prep (1 semester) to Hispanic immigrants and refugees, which taught me a lot about how to gauge students' understanding, teach tough subjects, plan activities, provide flashcards and the best possible study materials, and make the most of the students' time. I love tutoring...

...understand the world around them but it also sharpens my skills. The last level of learning something is being able to teach it to others, so I tutor others to improve myself. My philosophy of teaching is to help students find the answer on their own by guiding them towards a possible solution.

...importantly the use of dimensional analysis to verify test answers. Background material such as the history of science and mathematics is quite effective at not only making the material more interesting but at clarifying concepts and tying them together.
