I have had experience with private tutoring in several math subjects and have previously taught a chemistry class at a summer enrichment program in my hometown.

" I finished my degree in just three years at Rice and have a passion for academics. I tutor a wide variety of subjects, but I especially love to prepare students for standardized testing and college entrance exams.

" I love Math as it is something ordered and universal by which we can understand the world around us. I've been assisting others with Math and Latin from my sophomore year in high school, and have since been very active. I strive to be more than a simple talking textbook, and work patiently and personally with my students to come to a deeper understanding and appreciation of their subject matter. I always try to get to know each of my students on a personal and intellectual level.."
