"My teaching style is to break down complex tasks into smaller pieces so that the final concept can be understood at every stage. I believe that the best way to learn a new type of problem is to relate it to something you already know how to do. Every question is a question worth asking, and I will always take the time to adapt to your learning style and present material in the way that is easiest for you to understand.."

I love the sciences, biology and anatomy especially, but I have experience in other subjects as well. I was a writing tutor at UCSD for two years, working with all levels of writers, and as much as I love biology, writing is a blast to tutor! I was also a tutor for Immunology at UCSD.

"Born in Okinawa but raised in Southern California, I’ve always been flexible in mindset. I can only teach inside the circle my life has drawn for me. Since the circle has been made of flexibility, I teach in the style that seems to fit the situation. I like to draw, I like figuring out puzzles, I like to flip problems upside down (usually not literally) to solve them and explain to others how to reached the end.
I am a recent UCSD graduate with a passion for learning and a drive to help others."

"I loved learning math in high school and college, and later applying math to physics problems for engineering. I also excelled in Literature and Writing in high school, and have taken college courses pursuing an interest in Psychology(my parents are Psychiatrists!) and Anatomy and Physiology. I see mathematics and physics problems as a game, with rules and tools to make use of. I see some of the same principles in my extracurricular interests -- chess and tennis."
