...and several other subjects. I believe each student learns in his or her own way, and I work with students to identify study methods that work for them.

...one-on-one tutoring during the time I worked in New York City.

I also found that I really enjoyed working with students on a wide variety of subject. In addition, I look forward to being challenged by...

...and laughter. I could be quite strict about one issue in particular, which was an absolute ban on playing on smart phones in my classes, but otherwise I could be quite relaxed and ready to enjoy the students and the class topic. I used to tell my students that I wanted to have an American-style classroom, with free discussion of any topic and students eager to participate and disagree with me, but it was really...

I am open to...

...teaching assistant for both introductory biology and general chemistry. Besides chemistry, I really enjoy tutoring for test prep (ACT and MCAT) because I view these types of tests to be a collection of puzzles to solve. It's a lot of fun helping students to figure out the logic behind these puzzles and apply it broadly, and it's incredibly rewarding to see this integration of knowledge translate to a high score. When working with students, I...
