...can play such a huge role in your future. My own experience as test-taker and test-teacher has convinced me that as a tool for evaluating students, standardized testing has its share of flaws. But the tests aren't unfair or unbeatable; they challenge you to learn a specific language. I don't mean the fancy vocabulary you'll want in a verbal section, but the forms and patterns of the questions themselves. With thoughtful effort, any student can...

I really think that once students have the drive to do well in school everything else will come into place. I was a tutor in high school and now I'm getting back into it. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

As an educator, I strive to make math available to every student. Each student has their own learning style and is capable of learning. My job is to connect the student to their learning, using techniques that suit their needs. We need to include a few laughs along the way, as this is Math after all!

I love learning about my students' hobbies and interests, and strive to connect these with the material I tutor them on.

...walk-in sessions and private appointments. What do I get out of tutoring? I owe much of my academic success to the professors who taught and inspired me.

It's the same sense of accomplishment and joy that you get when you drop a few seconds off your 5k PR. When you finally play your recital...

...why such a procedure works. As a student, I did not always find new concepts easy to understand and I therefore empathise with struggling students, coaching them with a patient, probing approach until we are both satisfied that we have reached our goal.

By passing this knowledge on to any prospective...
