...and find unexpected relationships between the two. I'm a strong visual learner, and this is reflected in my style of tutoring. I think that being able to picture something clearly instantly makes it significantly less abstract, and is particularly helpful when trying to dissect the inner workings of some multi-step process. That said, this isn't the only way I approach things, and there's enough flexibility with the sciences that I'd feel comfortable approaching things from...

I believe students are already equipped with what they already know and learned from school; we just need to unpack it and understand it! As we go through problems, I'll simply be a guide, asking many questions, so it'll lead you to the answer. I don't like just giving you the answer or teaching you a pattern...
