Zach: Westminster Philosophy tutor
Certified Philosophy Tutor in Westminster, CO
...that teaching, one-on-one or in a classroom setting, is something that I'm passionate about. I believe that dialogue between mentor and pupil, much in the style of Plato's works, is the most effective way of imparting knowledge. Despite how overbearing or intimidating that might sound, I also think that light, informal settings are the best for tutoring. In my free time I enjoy reading, riding my bike, playing disc golf, and watching Husker football.

I think these subjects are a unique challenge to teach because students only develop the necessary skill if they are able critically think through the problems at hand. I thus do my best to guide my students thinking processes, rather than tell them the answers. I spend most of my free...
