I think success is not simply a matter of knowledge or ability; it is also about attitude and confidence. Through working with me as your tutor, I hope to help you develop your confidence in your abilities and cultivate a positive attitude that allows you to tackle any challenge that comes your way. One of the ways that you can become a better learner is to understand your own learning style. One way of breaking this down is as follows: visual, verbal, and kinesthetic. Visual learners are people who like to use pictures and images to further their understanding of something. Verbal learners work best with words, whether they be speech or writing. Kinesthetic learners take in knowledge by using their body and sense of touch. As a tutor, I hope to help you find which styles, or combination of styles, works best for you. This way, you know better how to study on your own, and you can develop your skills at becoming an independent learner. So here is a little about me:I grew up in the beautiful county of Marin, just north of San Francisco, California. There, I attended Marin Academy, a private high school that prepared me very well for my time earning my undergraduate degree at Brown University (Class of 2013). I have always been a hard worker when it comes to academics, and I understand what it takes, in terms of study skills and organization, to excel in school. I am excited to be able to give back and use my excellent education to share my knowledge with students who are struggling.
