...to provide students with the skills to find and solve problems that matter to them. This is the lens that I teach through, since there's always an application for the skills that we're tasked with learning. By jumping right into problems that matter and learning as we go, students will master topics in both theoretical and applied contexts. On a more personal note, I'm a biomedical engineering student at Georgia Tech. I also study computer...

...for those standardized tests along with math, both algebra and calculus, essay writing, grammar, and Latin. My approach to tutoring is strengthening the basics and then teaching the complex. Students are like buildings; they must have an unbreakable foundation before they can be built up. Also, I find that students learn best through examples, and so I always introduce new topics through examples to help facilitate the learning process. My greatest passion is soccer, which...

While my formal studies have focused on geography and the other social sciences, I am passionate about a broad range of subjects including history, math, philosophy, and literature. When tutoring math in preparation for the SAT, I love witnessing the gestalt moment when students realize the solution to a problem. In my spare time, I enjoy reading literature and criticism, swimming and...

...in Health Sciences closer to home. I believe I stand out as a tutor because I avoid mindless memorization and instead propose simple examples that explain why and how we come up with an answer. I was born with a love for learning and a passion for understanding. Let me help you find your true potential in science and math. A tough problem becomes a fun puzzle when questions are posed conceptually!

...sometimes the problem is not the new material, but a stronger foundation in previous classes is needed. Professionally I have mostly tutored math for the last several years, but within my friends I tutored physics and other STEM courses through my academic career. I have a BS in civil engineering from New Jersey Institute of Technology, an MS from Stevens Institute of Technology and I am currently pursuing a PhD in civil engineering.

...I find immense joy in witnessing students experience their "aha" moments, particularly when they grasp complex topics like probability or algebra.
