...tutoring, where I have the student walk me through what they understand, so together we can explore what they don't. This positive approach allows the student to see how much knowledge they actually already have at their disposal. It encourages the student and gives them the confidence they need approaching their coursework. My job is to give students the skills and tools necessary to be able to understand, analyze, and work through problems on their...

...early to help my son, and to enjoy the time traveling; but, in less than three months after my separation from the university classrooms, I had a bunch of high-school students who set up a classroom in my living-room. So, I guess this is what I'm going to have to live with, at least, for a part of my time. Besides, I feel I've done something meaningful when I see one of my students getting...

Now I attend Rice University, and I am majoring in Cognitive Sciences with the intention of getting into Medical school.

...in everyones life, when you are most vulnerable and malleable to outside influences. I believe having genuine and reliable guidance during such a time is critical to establishing a strong foundation for a well-rounded and successful adult, and it is something every child should have the privilege of receiving.

...each student individually and not stopping until the student understands. I believe that the best way to learn is to break down each topic to its core concepts so that the student understands each concept. Every question has a pattern that uses the same core concepts over and over again. If I am able to teach these core concepts once, the student will be able to do any sort of question in the future.

...passion of mine. Although the focus has changed drastically over time, growing through knowledge has always been important. In elementary school, I was determined to become a meteorologist. During 7th and 8th grade, I was a devout member of the school Robotics Club. Now in college, history and politics are my primary passion. Life has given me many chances to learn, and I hope to give that same opportunity to others through Varsity Tutors.

It is my job to ensure a student can relate to the material, stay focused on the lesson, and discover...

In my spare time, I enjoy listening to local bands and going for walks around the lake.
