...come from working at a nearby center called "Perfect Tutors" and from helping classmates at my after school academic resource center. I really enjoy getting to know and helping kids learn.

I had to work very hard for my grades, especially during my freshman year.

Being a student myself, I understand the struggles some students may face academically. Seeing students understand the content and seeing that "ah-ha!" moment is what I strive for when I tutor and it is what drives me to tutor. Seeing other people be successful makes me want to become a better person and knowing that I contributed a little bit is what drives me to teach.

...connecting it to things students already enjoy and understand. Learning is so much more fun if it is relevant to things we already love. I also try to create hands-on experiences that we can hold, move, and arrange as we talk about math: we have to get up off the worksheet. Making Kool-aid is a much more understandable (and delicious) way to learn about ratios than just doing practice problems out of a book. If...
