"Recently, I started tutoring and realized that I have a passion for helping others understand material. I also have experience as a Chemistry recitation Instructor for college level general chemistry.
I don’t have a specific teaching-style because each individual is different and therefore, require a different method to understand which, based on my experience, I can usually tell from the first session.."

"Once my goal is reached, they would not need a tutor. I always encourage them to solve a problem on their own and give them as little help as possible. I try to show my students that with a bit of diligence and patience any problem could be solved. If my student is lacking the knowledge of the basics I always make sure to cover them quickly before teaching the more advanced subject."

"I am committed to making a mark that cannot be erased, locally and globally. Math is not about memorizing rules and procedures, its actual logic built into our everyday lives... from the arch of a bridge to the coordinates of the street to the mass transit system... without mathematics none of the above would be possible."

" My lifelong interest in foreign cultures and languages led me to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Comparative Politics and certificates in Near Eastern Studies & Arabic Language/Culture, as well as multiple trips abroad for language immersion and research.

"The mere thought of working with numbers can give us chills. But it doesn’t have to be that way. My goal is to shed some light on that enigma that we call math, and make it not as scary as it often seems. In fact, with the right approach, math can be fun!

" I tutored college students for a political science class as well as a creative writing class. The funny part is that while I always enjoyed writing and had a passion for it, I was never very good. I had my problems with my own writing and certainly not, at first, qualified to tutor anyone else in it. In fact, my first creative writing class I took at Middlebury, my professor told me that writing was not my strong suit.
I was discouraged."

"When I work with a student for the first time, I like to begin with the very basics of the subject to ensure the individual has a proper grasp of the fundamentals. Students can often be hesitant to admit they are unsure of concepts that were taught in previous years because they feel they are expected to know them. However, without a proper understanding of the simple facets of a subject, the more complicated features can never be truly internalized. I have always enjoyed explaining concepts to other people, and find it works best when I relate the subject to a personal interest of the student." ...
