Now I hope that I can take what I am good at (math...

...an extra boost for an AP test, and I spent an entire semester at a school in India working with students in math, physics, and SAT prep.

...College of Science and Engineering, with plans to major in Aerospace Engineering. When I was young I thought I was terrible at math, but now I realize that I wasn't being taught it in an engaging way, and I didn't have a great work ethic toward learning it, myself. I would like to help others discover the scientist or mathematician in themselves, so they don't have to discover it as late as I did.

I enjoy helping students learn material in a way they can remember and apply in future coursework.... Perseverance trumps brilliance every time. Ask questions and work hard, and there's nothing you won't be able to understand.... I would begin by asking a few questions to see where a student is. I would then provide a useful note sheet and go over a refresher of some of the concepts we would be focusing on.... I would talk...

A strong foundation will lead to success in both current and future courses.

I'd also love to help you with prepping for any section...

...language: listening and reading is much easier than speaking and writing. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you come to class and understand what the instructor is saying, you don't need to practice the material. Accordingly, I emphasize the need to practice "speaking" the language on a regular basis and to receive immediate feedback on one's learning. In my free time I enjoy woodworking and playing with...
