...pride in making sure my students understand the material to the best of their ability and view their progress as a reflection of my own achievements. Aside from developing a curriculum specialized to each one's level of capability, I vary problems so they have a broader knowledge of the subject matter at hand.

...subject and provide them with the capacity to learn the material. Writing and reading are also challenges for students I am currently working with or have taught in the past. I believe firmly in what I call "text coding." I encourage my students to read through a passage and underline words they are unfamiliar with and then rephrase many sections of the writing in their own words. This allows students to break down a text...

While all of my "professional" and "academic" qualities are certainly important, I think it's also necessary for you to understand more about me as a person. I consider myself a "nerd" and I am no longer self-conscious about it - it's who I am. I love school, but aside from that I enjoy reading and writing. To me, the smell of a...

...hard time remembering concepts and terms. I had a near perfect attendance record, but still struggled with performing well on tests. I thought to myself, why was this happening? Students have so much pressure to perform well on standardized tests.

I try to pinpoint the root of any learning difficulties so we can work together to overcome those difficulties and achieve success. I have always had an interest in learning foreign languages. I have traveled throughout Europe and also have a basic knowledge of German and Italian. My hobbies...
