I love to play logic games, math games, and word games to learn in a new way. Additionally, learning different concepts' real-world applications can make a lesson more meaningful to a student. In my free time, I love to rock climb, run, take my dog to...

...down to their parts. Sometimes all it takes is strengthening the foundation in order to understand things better. Other subjects I love working on are reading and writing. I write everyday myself, and know that my passion for it came from the classes I took in grade school. I'd describe myself as extremely patient and calm. I always keep a professional demeanor and I understand that everyone learns differently. I also understand that learning this...

Teaching and Tutoring has always been a passion of mine.

As a Group Leader for the Boys and Girls Club I worked with youth ages K-8 and I tutored and taught for Upward Bound during the semester and summer programs. I also taught cognitive skill building lessons to middle and high school aged youth for the YWCA's Restorative Justice program.

...own (correct) answers, which is something that gives me tremendous satisfaction and fulfillment. The question-asking method doesn't always work for every situation, however. Sometimes an important abstract concept is unclear to a student, in which case I will explain it in a way that is tailored to the person I am working with--I will often use an analogy with a more familiar and accessible set of ideas for the student. I also like to use...

When it comes to learning, I think that the one-on-one attention a student can get from a tutor can make all the difference in building self-confidence and mastering the material.
