Not everyone's brain works the same as mine! I try to look at problems through the eyes of the student to fully understand where the miscommunication may stem from. Mutual respect and empathy between both student and tutor is what I try to encourage during each meeting.

I taught at Columbia University and Georgetown University before. I like teaching and can teach almost all levels of Mathematics and Statistics. Thanks!

I am so excited to...

I'm currently enrolled...
