I love to think outside the box when it comes to planning lessons, applying student interests and hobbies when possible. This act gives each lesson my personal touch.

...these areas, using real-world examples from cutting-edge research and scientific communication skills gleaned from poster sessions and academic publications to supplement the teaching experience.

As a trial attorney, I routinely have to communicate complex matters to a jury that has no experience in the fields of chemistry, biology and physics. This forces me to adopt an engaging style to ensure they do not tune me out.

Instead, I prefer to have a conversation with the student to explain the "why" and "how" behind the necessary revisions so that we can improve the piece together. When I am not tutoring, I enjoy traveling, gardening, watching movies, playing racquetball, and spending time with friends and...
