"I am a very down to earth guy, who enjoys helping others do their best. I am currently a Doctoral student in Music, but have a special gift and love for math and science. First I aim to help my clients grasp the concepts, then adapt my instruction to their learning style. Most student can grasp even advanced concepts when explained in a reasonable way (this often does not happen in the classroom), but I also give them the little tips that save time, and teach them exactly what to look for to pinpoint the concept in any problem."

"I have had many opportunities throughout my life that I have been able to take advantage of and get the most out of. Whether it is the variety of academic knowledge I have been taught, sports I have been coached in, or musical instruments and skills I have been inspired to learn, all of these things involved a teacher, a coach, or a friend. Because of this, I plan to devote a large part of myself to giving back and acting as the kind of role model I have been lucky to have in different forms through my child and adulthood.
