...of their strengths and weaknesses. I want to encourage students to always be able to explain why they picked a certain answer or what steps they took to solve a problem. I also want students to have a connection to the material and understand how it relates to their existing knowledge. The more connections we make between concepts, the better understanding we have of the big picture. When I'm not working or studying, I like...

...student's interests. Furthermore, I understand that not everybody learns in the same manner. I excel at auditory learning while many others prefer visual information. I will work with each student in a way that I believe they will be most receptive to. I will help them understand how a word problem relates to a picture or an equation, which is the most vital skill to have in mathematics. Most importantly, I will help the student...

...at your own pace skimming over the information you know well and spending more time on what you find difficult is crucial. I also think that truly understanding the material on a deeper level is more important and beneficial than memorizing shortcuts to get to the answer. I am very patient and will work alongside the student toward reaching that key moment when the material finally clicks and everything makes sense. Outside of my research...

I definitely stress practice problems and problem solving in my approach, however I am open and flexible to feedback and...

...students who come to me have their "Eureka!" moments and come to understand the concept they didn't grasp before, or solve the problem that had been giving them so much trouble. It's a really terrific feeling to know that I can make a difference in someone's life that way, however small it may be. I also understand that to seek tutoring help can potentially be a nervous or uncomfortable feeling at first, and so I...

I have long enjoyed enjoyed working with others to help them achieve personal goals. Some of the most fulfilling tutoring I have done recently have been tutoring immigrants for the US Citizenship Test, helping formerly incarcerated individuals attain their GEDs, and tutoring children in Honduras on conversational English to obtain high-paying jobs in the tourism industry. I'm thrilled to work with anybody on any subjects of interest, reach out with any questions!

Standardized tests are just a game against the clock that we can improve in so many ways. ... I have two philosophies. 1. Practice makes perfect. 2. There's an angle to everything.

I am there to figure out where the difficulty in learning stems from and...

...of majoring in linguistics. I have tutored elementary and middle school students in violin for four years, in addition to casual tutoring in history, writing, and languages.
