...over 10 years now since senior year of high school. My approach is pretty simple. Find a need and fill it. I'd like to see where the student is having a knowledge gap. Some times it takes a different approach to explain a concept. Math and physics have a very consistent framework when solving a problem and when you follow that framework, you can solve 99% of problems! The new Digital SAT is significantly different...

...I have taught high school biology, chemistry and physical science and have tutored in SAT Math prep there as well. My favorite moments of teaching were marked by students saying "I get it" -- especially after a long struggle to understand but everything finally makes sense and the light bulb just turned on. In helping students grasp very abstract concepts, I attempt to give examples that are more tangible and that the students can relate...

I will always be patient with my student. Although I am majoring in mechanical engineering,...

...create a personalized lesson plan, incorporating instruction and practice problems into the teaching. I notice that some students are very visual learners while others prefer an auditory explanation and discussion. By highlighting the student's strengths, understanding their weaknesses, and tailoring the instruction to their learning style, the student's learning potential will greatly increase. I will meet the unique needs of each student in order to help them achieve success while also making learning fun! I...

Aside from tutoring and academics, I love to do any sort of outdoor activity. I really love playing soccer, hiking, and walking my dog. I love the feeling of being outside on an adventure and having...
