From UrbanFuture, I proceeded to tutor with pay privately for my parents' colleague's children in elementary school in mathematics, science, and reading. From my years of tutoring, I have learned that the most success comes from developing a healthy and...

I also enjoy working on essays, and I often helped my friends in college with their papers. I'm particularly passionate about math and writing, and I believe that a teacher's enthusiasm in any field is infectious for the students. In...

Finally, I love seeing students discover how to arrive at an answer, rather than just being told the answer. It...

...of Analytics for a digital advertising agency. Math, statistics and economics have always been the subjects I enjoyed learning about the most and in which I excelled. This has led me to a career in the analytics field (though in varying industries) for the past 5 years. Since I'm currently in a program that focuses on mathematics, statistics and computer science, I am especially excited to get to tutor in these areas!... I believe it's very important to realize that all of us learn differently. Personally, I am a very visual learner, and I typically struggle with understanding theories without the inclusion of an example. However, this doesn't mean that this is the best way to learn or the easiest way for each person to learn. Each student has a different style that suits their learning best, and I believe it's important to discover that style and adapt the teaching method accordingly.

I am currently completing a single course in order to fully complete my degree and I am training to hopefully become a Coast Guard rescue swimmer in the next year. I really enjoy outdoor activities from longboarding and running to swimming and water skiing.... My teaching philosophy is centered around problem solving strategies. I focus on teaching students how to think about, approach problems, how to identify the important aspects of problems and ultimately how to solve them efficiently, even if they are not familiar with the subject. I strongly believe that an active learning approach is best, and I like to walk students through problems and discuss the thought process involved in any given problem.
