...grammar to organic chemistry and calculus. Similarly, I've worked as a private tutor in SAT prep, AP test prep, and French, as the latter is my native language. For that reason, I like tutoring foreign languages, since a foreign language is a process that doubles one's ability to communicate with others without the need for a translator or dictionary.

...writing. Math is incredible -- I love how numbers are meant to work out to a perfect answer and when students that I tutor "get it" I feel greatly rewarded.

...have found the tutoring model of one-to-one instruction brings quicker results. I enjoy helping students achieve those "ah ha" moments when a concept clicks. Often that moment comes by relating a troubling concept to something the student enjoys. My diverse interests enable me to build rapport and relate assignments to real life. Encouraging students to clearly communicate through writing and verbally explaining material builds success in any academic area. Together we will succeed.... My teaching philosophy is somewhat eclectic but based on the classical method of building a foundation of fundamentals before connecting related ideas and having the student explain the material to me.

...tutored privately in numerous settings, and have an advanced degree in a critical thinking field. I love teaching and building relationships with my students.
