I seek to make my sessions as "unboring" as possible, as I believe a combination of effective teaching and fun is unmatchable. If you...

...and I am striving to end that problem one student at a time. From the teaching class I took, I learned that the best way to do that is to guide students in the right direction, but let them figure the answer out on their own. Im currently getting my Bachelors degree in Psychology at the University of Maryland, however I plan to continue on to get my Masters in Education. Outside of school, I...

...my tutelage. My expertise includes Mathematics (Basic Math through Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Differential Equations), English, Test Preparation (ACT, SAT, GRE, etc.), and Professional Training (public speaking, report and proposal writing, and other career services). My primary area of expertise, though, is in challenging my students to THINK! I have found, from both practical and research perspectives, that students are better served by THINKING, as opposed to memorizing and regurgitating. I encourage students to think...

I do not believe that anyone is naturally good or bad...

...also worked at Mathnasium, tutoring math of course, and test prep. These experiences have allowed me to tutor a variety of students, refining my own teaching skills in the process.

...want to pass this appreciation on to students by relating concepts to their experiences and giving useful real world examples. I believe the key to tutoring physics and math is not rote memorization but ensuring the student understands and identifies fundamental principles behind each problem. I will first work with each student on simple problems to develop familiarity and intuition. Then, we will approach more complex problems which tie several concepts together. Students will learn...

...relating to science, is that if someone can fully explain the concept in words, without looking at notes, then they can do good on any examination testing the understanding of that concept. Based on this philosophy, I think that the best way to teach is to create a more interactive form of learning, where both tutor and student are actively involved in the process. I like to teach using a lot of visuals, because I...

...preparing for entrance exams. My approach to teaching is to be collaborative and thorough. I always appreciated teachers who broke things down into simple pieces, explained things in a methodical manner, and never made me feel bad for not understanding right away. So I hope to do the same with all my students. At the end of the day, I aim to help all my students achieve their objectives. I'm a graduate from Georgetown University...
