...my students can expect me to cover concepts with both depth and clarity. Outside of lesson plans, my students can also expect me to reply promptly to any questions they may have about the subjects we cover. But communication is also a two way street. In order to be a more effective tutor, I try to understand my student's specific goals and challenges so that I can best tailor classes to their needs. In terms...

...realized the only thing I loved more than learning was teaching. I absolutely love helping my students achieve their goals and seeing their eyes light up as they succeed. I pursued my passion for tutoring at my local library by teaching both middle school and high school students in all math classes ranging from Algebra 1 all the way to AP Statistics. I did so for three years and also have experience in online tutoring(in...

...that mistake!". The teacher tries to hear what the student wants and then figures what to work on in order to get there. I've been both a student and teacher of guitar, and I try to take that teaching style into my tutoring.

...3 classes every semester. It was great. The only sad thing was so many students would tell me that they wished they had taken in their freshman year and learned that they could do Math well. They quite often had changed their majors because of their fear of Math. I decided I needed to teach in high school instead of the university level so that I could catch them before they let their fear of...

...foster discussions about writing and the fact that each session requires me to adapt to suit the needs of each individual. In May of 2014, I graduated summa cum laude from Vanderbilt University with a Bachelor of Arts in Classics and Interdisciplinary English and History.

...prep (all subjects), and PCAT test prep. While I enjoy helping students in all areas, my favorite subjects to tutor are math and chemistry, as there's so much room for growth of understanding in these subjects that many students dread. I make it a personal goal of mine to have the student enjoy the subject by the end of our sessions, as I believe it makes a more fun and challenging environment for us both....

...Talented Youth, as a Teaching Assistant in a Game Theory class for advanced middle school students. After the program ended, I traveled around Asia, visiting places in Malaysia and Vietnam before eventually returning to the American South, where, as a native North Carolinian, I feel at home.

...Texas. I began tutoring about a few years ago and discovered that I truly enjoy the intellectual challenge of tutoring and the opportunity to interact with a lot of bright, hard-working students. I had never tutored or taught before, so I read lots of study guides and picked out suggestions and tactics that made sense to me. I look for multiple ways to illustrate concepts because everyone understands information differently. My work with students is...

I have a strong base in all subjects, but I especially enjoy language tutoring, because I am multilingual. I love teaching Mathematics, Sciences, English, History, Writing...you name it.

If you take a look at my interest and hobbies, you can see that my curious drive is not limited to my academics - far from it!
