I'm a lifelong learner and hope to share my love of learning with my students. I graduated in 2014 from Oregon State University with a Bachelor of Science in Physics, with a minor in Chemistry. My favorite subject to teach is math. It's a tough subject, and I've found that practice, patience, and repetition is the best way to learn it!

...most of my experience was in math. While I majored in humanities, my strong math background from high school enabled me to help many students in subjects ranging from Algebra 1 to AP Calculus. Also, in the summer before my senior year I earned a TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language) certificate in China, while working with elementary age children. I have enjoyed all of my experiences with teaching and tutoring because I like...

Studying mathematics is much more than simply memorizing. Mathematics was one of the earliest liberal...

...tough classes and tests that you are facing right now. I have taken the the PSAT, the SAT, a number of AP tests as well as the MCAT.

...on Model United Nations and community development projects. I have experience both taking and assisting peers with A.P. exams, including World History, U.S. History, U.S. Government, Comparative Government, English Language and English Literature. I believe that students learn best when a seemingly complex subject is broken down into simple and logical pieces, and the pieces are made relatable and relevant to students. I also believe that for students struggling with subjects like History and English,...

The subjects I tutor includes but not limited to Traditional Mandarin Chinese, Data Structure & Algorithm (Java) and Frontend Web Development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React.js). I believe that everyone learn things...

...most passionate about teaching all levels of math, physics, and chemistry. I am a very curious and passionate learner, and I am eager to foster that same drive in students. I approach teaching by answering questions and explaining concepts but encouraging the student to put those concepts into practice themselves. Instead of simply showing students how to do a problem, I always try to explain the why behind the concept as well.

...in whatever subject you are working with. In the past, I tutored professionally for the SAT and ACT, and informally helped people in all subjects. As of August, 2021, I'm just getting started here on Varsity Tutors. I've worked a lot as a software engineer, so I will be focusing on Computer Science to start with. I'll be reviewing Math next, and then see what other subjects I might like to try helping with.

...problems and achieve better results. My tutoring style differs depending on the subject I'm tutoring. For Mathematics based subjects, I tend to take a graphical approach; focusing on addressing weak-points in understanding by presenting the material in a different, more intuitive and visual way. For Political Science, I focus on building contextual and theoretical understanding of the underlying theories and critiques. Outside of academia, I enjoy playing chess, reading, hiking, biking, skiing, cooking, and trying...
