As a UC Berkeley graduate with medical school aspirations, tutoring and teaching is a natural transition.

...is one of the greatest joys I've felt as an educator, and one that is often missed in the classroom setting. I aim to engage students intellectually and critically in an effort to make them stronger writers, readers, test-takers, and thinkers. I won't act as an editor for students, for that would be doing them a great disservice. Instead, I plan on helping find and filling the gaps in their education that have held them...

...Math. I think the value in me as a tutor is teaching students how to solve problems on their own, instead of just relying on me to give them the answers. I can teach students the importance of not giving up, ease the pressure they get from academics, and help them to comprehend the learning material more easily.
