Award-Winning ACT Tutors in Minneapolis, MN

...Minnesota. I've grown up loving mathematics and have succeeded in math at every level. I'm familiar with working in groups as well as one-on-one through learning communities and through the ISU Solar Car Team.

I also enjoy sports, music, hiking and fishing as well as hanging out with friends. Given my recent High School graduation...

...and relevant to one's life and interests. Inviting student dialogue about the lessons and units of study lends the opportunity for input, students generate ideas and set goals that make for much richer activities than I could have created or imagined myself. When students have ownership in the curriculum, they are motivated to work hard and master the skills necessary to reach their goals. Helping students to develop a deep love and respect for themselves,...

...My main motivation for tutoring is simply that I love physics and math, and find them immensely beautiful. I want to share that love and illustrate concepts visually and intuitively rather than through mechanical computation. There's a quote I can't track down along the lines of "Do not attempt a proof until it is almost obvious" which guides my teaching philosophy. Outside of tutoring, I play classical piano, have worked in book conservation, and enjoy...

I enjoy teaching math because to the student who doesn't understand, it is a riddle with no answer. By teaching them how to recognize the type of problem and how to decode the clues, the student gets to be on the other side of the riddle, the side on which they solve it and feel good about it.

...of writing best serve its intended purpose. While writing is a skill that is required across all academic fields (and in life outside of school), my degree is in literature, and I can definitely help students with that as well. My focus has been on more contemporary American literature, but I've read widely, and can help with anything from Shakespeare to post-colonial lit. Whether or not I'mm familiar with the book a student is writing...

A good tutor is someone who understands your learning needs and desires, and adapts their teaching style to meet those needs. Learning should be an interactive process, with the tutor and the one being tutored offering equal conversation and interacting in meaningful ways together. The best tutors are able to balance the need for specific content mastery and the desire to instill a love for learning as a general concept.

I hope to show clarity, professionalism, and respect in helping students master their work and continue to...
