...earning a PhD in Art History with the intent of becoming a professor. Working as a tutor is a wonderful opportunity to craft and hone my educational style.

...my own children, I understand how difficult working within the system can be on a family. Also, how "neuronormies" can struggle with math and find it overwhelming.

...a tutor (in home and online). In fact, substitute teaching is a lot like being a tutor. Beyond subject matter content, teaching is always about the self-esteem of the student.

Learning takes place over the course of a school year, semester, quarter, week, or in a five minute time frame (such...

After my graduation from the University of Portland, majoring in mathematics...

...math and theoretical computer science, as well as number theory (largely the study of prime numbers). I've taught courses ranging from basic arithmetic up through linear algebra and multivariable calculus. The second most exciting thing about mathematics is that moment when something totally opaque and confusing suddenly solidifies into crystal clarity. It's the sort of moment that makes you shout "aha!" or "eureka!". The most exciting thing about mathematics is sharing that experience with someone...

...too common for folks to struggle with math and even stress out about it. I hope to help more students to realize that math isn't scary. The most important thing is that we take the pressure off. The primary goal of the tutor should be to make the subject approachable and comprehensible. Once we unlock your intuitive quantitative skills you will find things like math and physics are much simpler than you thought!
