...cared more for the understanding and success of their students than for simply getting through the curriculum and exams. I have worked to emulate that approach in my own teaching, be it one-on-one tutoring, or running test review sessions in my residence hall.

I'm currently a first year engineering student at the University of Virginia! I enjoy teaching others about math because guiding someone through solving a problem is a rewarding experience not only for the student, but the teacher as well. I think mathematics, and any subject for that matter, is best learned by making mistakes and learning from them. With someone to guide you along the way, any subject can be conquered.

...true "kid at heart," I am blessed with a good sense of humor that resonates with young folks. Experience has taught me how to effectively solve students' learning problems.
