But I've found that having someone (i.e. a tutor) around can help with finding alternative ways of approaching a problem/reading a sentence. I currently write music for movies and TV shows, so...

...to build something. An example is a cardboard frame for a toy car with plastic wheels, powered by an elastic band and propeller. They learn to solve problems of friction, alignment, etc. by trying various solutions to see what works best. They don't lose points for designs that don't work. They gain experience. My goal in tutoring, is to continue to help students understand and appreciate Math and Physics while they learn it, instead of...

...University of Connecticut respectively. In addition, I have completed 5 AP courses at King School. I have been a tutor to members of my family, helping my brothers during a very difficult geometry class.

I'm a big believer in the Socratic Method and allowing the student to realize the answer through curiosity. What interests you outside of academia? Ah, reading, tennis and DIY. I'm a bit frugal and love learning, so learning how to do random things inside and outside of the house becomes quite fun!!

As a mathematics tutor, I view each student as equally important. Everybody deserves a chance to learn something or improve in their weakest areas. I believe that patience, dedication, and understanding are the keys to making my students' experiences better.

As a current undergraduate student, academics have always been important to me. About a year ago I finished up the college application process and was finally able to sit back and be proud of myself and what I had accomplished throughout my high school career. Being proud of my academic achievements has always given me such a sense of fulfillment, and by being a tutor I hope to pass that good feeling on :~)

...understand certain Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry concepts will we studied. Eventually, I would begin volunteer tutoring here and there, and not only did it help me further retain the information I had learned, but a way to apply it beneficially to help others grow.
