...understanding of the world around us, she progressed. Later on, my extensive experience in the classroom as a Jumpstart Corps Member taught me to adapt my teaching style to each childs needs. While some learned better through mnemonics and letter-to-word associations, others preferred to process information and teach content back to me themselves. The greatest lesson I've learned as a tutor is to first step back and let a student tell me their goals, show...

...is, and ought to be, for its own sake. Math and philosophy, and their nuanced interactions, are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a difficult proof. I'm a scholar of the Western canon, greatly influenced by great thinkers and writers of the past such as Plato, Virgil, Aquinas, and Anselm....

Past students have remarked that my teaching style is animated...

...concepts and terms. I had a near perfect attendance record, but still struggled with performing well on tests. I thought to myself, why was this happening? Students have so much pressure to perform well on standardized tests. We cram with flashcards, pull all nighters, and even sacrifice our social time to prove to the world that we retained what we learned that year. But are we *actually* learning? My goal as a tutor is to...

...Biology Education at the University of Connecticut, I believe that I have the prerequisite depth of knowledge and experiences in educational settings necessary to tutor all students. My emphasis as a teacher is the learning of the process rather than simply the product. Ensuring that the students have a deep understanding of the content will allow them to succeed more than simply teaching them a trick for getting the correct answer. Setting your expectations high...

...find science in general a fascinating subject because I enjoy understanding how our world functions and how everything interacts. History I enjoy attempting to understand how certain events happened and how those events shaped the future.

Another subject I enjoy tutoring is Standardized Testing, where I help high school students prepare for exams like the SAT, PSAT, and ACT. Preparing for these exams is crucial in order to achieve...

...I conducted many of the daily experiments and worked to help them understand these topics. Additionally, during my junior and senior years of high school, I served as a facilitator in my school's Diversity Day programs (the student one and the faculty one). I helped to organize the entire day's events and facilitated conversations on issues of diversity within out community, educating my peers on issues that were relevant to our everyday lives as students....

I love to appreciate a text and dig into the true meaning of language. I also have ample experience working with young people with autism and other special needs. I believe all students deserve and are capable of success, and defining success together is the most important part.

...mentors, and tutors along the way that helped me master the strategies and techniques that worked best for my studies and inspired me to love learning. I became increasingly confident throughout the years, eventually earning a spot at my dream college and currently pursuing a career that I'm truly passionate about. I now wish to pay it forward and be a positive influence for the students that are frustrated in school. Based on my own...

I entirely self-studied for the LSAT and scored in the top 1 percentile, so I am well...

...on. We work best only when we are being challenged by the very same people we are trying to teach. In doing so, as tutors , we are constantly reminded on the need to stay current, to continuously strive to add more to our arsenal of information and to simultaneously be prepared to reinvent oneself in a very short period of time. It is my belief that that is what it takes to be a...
